<div>KATA/STHSON (that's the causative 1 aor.; intransitive (&quot;quasi-passive&quot; as it is termed in JACT Reading Greek series) 2nd aor. (what I prefer to call &quot;3rd aor.&quot;) would be logically KATASTHQI, but I wonder whether
that would ever appear--perhaps something like STRATHGOS KATASTHQI! &quot;get yourself elected Strategos!&quot;</div>
