Bible Note: Greetings Arnie! Aorists are tricky. For all intents and purposes, they are roughly equivalent to our past tense. The action is viewed as complete, but the tense itself does not specify whether or not the action occurred over time or in a moment. Gildersleeve (as quoted in Dana and Mantey's "A Manual Grammar of the Greek New Testament" - pg. 194) defines an aorist in this way - "The Aorist states a past action without reference to its duration simply as a thing attained." One of the few problems with Vine's is that everything is so condensed. :-) I checked, and the present participle is in reference to Rom. 10:14. I wish they would include more spaces in Vines! :-) Your Brother in Christ, Tim Moran |
