Can you explain more about how the masculine/feminine works in Greek? I've been trying to find a source via google and it keeps letting me down. I mostly just want to find out what the rules are regarding the use of masculine vs feminine in a document such as the Bible or even in a letter at the time the Epistles were written.

Go back to the woodshed and study it out. You don't know Koine Greek, sorry.
