Aorist participle with aorist main verb of movement – antecedent or simultaneous?
Posted: February 25th, 2020, 9:24 am
I wonder if there's a significance in the fact that the aorist participles in Heb 1:3 "having made" and 6:20 "having become" relate to verbs of movement "purified" and "entered" respectively. Do these instances denote antecendent or simultaneous events?
Dan B. Wallace says concerning this: "The aorist participle is normally, though by no means always, antecedent in time to the action of the main verb. But when the aorist participle is related to an aorist main verb, the participle will often be contemporaneous (or simultaneous) to the action of the main verb." (Wallace, Greek Grammar Beyond the Basics, 624)
