I am hestitant to raise this question fearing it might have already been 
well-discussed in the past.  But I could find no evidence in the archives.  
I find the "adverbial" use of te^n arche^n in John 8:25 quite odd.  Could 
someone shed some light on the meaning of this construction in this 
context?  I have already read the discussion in BAGD.  I am looking for 
more help than that.

te^n arche^n ho ti kai lalo^ humin

thanks,
