Yes, I can. Here is one: http://www.theopedia.com/Granville_Sharp%27s_Rule.

It also refers to James White's discussion on a separate link, but that is
better kept in the background until you are ready for detailed apologetics. So
start with tht Theopedia article, and go to White's if you must have more
details.

Oh, and when you see how the "Granvill Sharp's Rule" is
formulated, you will see
why it is NOT mentioned in most introductory texts. Yet strange as it is, it
really is remarkable that the only 'exception' is in 'translation-greek', which
really does not count.
