B-Greekers:

Does anybody know the significance, if any, of the EIS+verb EIS
construction, you know, like in EISHLQEN EIS?

I researched it a little. Found it (the EIS+verb EIS construction)
occurs 812 times in the Greek NT (according to my LOGOS search program).
Have not been able to find anything in the grammars about it and would
appreciate any help.

Also, checked out EISHLQEN EIS versus HLQEN EIS. The first occurs 18
times. The latter 16 times.

Thanks.
