I'm chewing on οὐκ ἐνεδύσατο ἱμάτιον (aorist) ... ἐν οἰκίᾳ οὐκ ἔμενεν (imperfect). I was expecting ἐνδύω to be in the imperfect (ἐνεδιδύσκετο), whether in the sense of "put on" - "for a long time he would not put on clothes", or possibly in the sense of "wear clothes" (as many English translations seem to take it), "for a long time he did not wear clothes".Luke 8:27 wrote:καὶ χρόνῳ ἱκανῷ οὐκ ἐνεδύσατο ἱμάτιον, καὶ ἐν οἰκίᾳ οὐκ ἔμενεν ἀλλ’ ἐν τοῖς μνήμασιν.
How do context (χρόνῳ ἱκανῷ ), negation (οὐκ), tense (imperfect), and the lexical aspect of ἐνδύω work together in this phrase?
Also: Alan Bunning's site shows three variants of this word among early manuscripts: ενεδυϲατο, ενεδιδυϲκετο, ενεδυδιϲκετο. What on earth is ενεδυδιϲκετο? Is that a misspelling in the manuscript, an error on Alan's part, or a form I am failing to recognize?
