On page 308 George rechristens the category Time Within Which to the limited. It is this category that I think fits my question about this particular use of παρουσία at 1Thess 3:13.
εἰς τὸ στηρίξαι ὑμῶν τὰς καρδίας ἀμέμπτους ἐν ἁγιωσύνῃ ἔμπροσθεν τοῦ θεοῦ καὶ πατρὸς ἡμῶν ἐν τῇ παρουσίᾳ τοῦ κυρίου ἡμῶν Ἰησοῦ μετὰ πάντων τῶν ἁγίων αὐτοῦ, [ἀμήν].
(1 Th 3:13 GNT28-T)

If I’m understanding his analysis correctly then the infinitive verb στηρίξαι being aorist/perfective results in it being telic/bounded and indicates that the parousia in this instance is punctual rather than durative.
Is that correct?
