+Verbs may be classified as **Transitive**, :ref:`Intransitive<verb_intransitive>`, or :ref:`Linking<verb_linking>` . 
+ Linking verbs may also be referred to as *equative verbs*.
+
+Transitive verbs require a object for the action of the verb. The object may be stated or implied.  
+The action of the verb is carried over into (or onto) an object of the verb.  Therefore, transitive verbs
+will always have an object for the verb.  
+
+Intransitive verbs do not take an object.  
+The verbal idea of the verb determines if a verb is transitive or intransitive.
+Intransitive verbs may appear in the active, middle, or passive voice. Although most verbs
+ in the passive voice are intransitive, there are a few instances where a verb in the passive voice is transitive.
+ See :ref:`Intransitive<verb_intransitive>`

+
+Some verbs can be transitive in one sentence and intransitive in another sentence.   
+ἐσθίω (2nd aorist ἔφαγον ) is a verb which can be both transitive or intransitive depending upon the context.
+
+ἐσθέω is transitive in Matthew 12:4
