EIS TINA H POION KARION


Time and circumstances (as per NIV)? What person and tine ( per NAS)?  Is

there anyway we can be sure what  TINA and POION modify?  The KARION? Is

TINA to be disassociated from KARION and understood as personal (who)? It

looks like a toss up as far as I can see. What am I missing? Help me, 
bitte.<<<<<<<<

The passage is ERAUNWNTES EIS TINA H POION KAIRON EDHLOU TO EN AUTOIS PNEUMA 
CRISTOU . . .  The question is whether TINA refers to a person or does it 
modify KAIRON? If both TINA and POION modify KAIRON then the indirect 
question is about what time or kind of time (NIV & ASV). If not then the 
question is concerning WHOM or WHAT SORT OF TIME (NAS). The former seems to 
me to fit better into this context.
