&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Please accept the apology of a fellow "little Greek"
if I came across critically.&nbsp; My question was meant to lead towards
my observation that
<p>&nbsp;-&nbsp;&nbsp; bearing in mind that we are taught that the infinitive
and participle communicate&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
aspect&nbsp;&nbsp; and not time...
<p>and
<p>-&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; if we should agree that the aor infinitive is modified
by the aor part, which in turn is modified by the prepositional phrase
DIA TOU AIMATOS...,
<p>then
<p>-&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; I agree a past occurance is indicated, which is
identified as Jesus death on the cross.
<p>Sorry, Thanks.
