It would seem that the shift from Aorist aspect of the participles in
verses 4,5, 6a into Present aspect participles in 6b and 6c would be
significant. Possibly, the Present aspect participles emphasize the ongoing
activity even continuing right now...right before our eyes.
What is even more interesting about the 2 present participles:
Are they causal indicating "since"?
Are they temporal indicating "while, as long as"?
Are they conditional indicating "if"?

Subject: [b-greek] present active participle in Hebr. 6:6
In Robertson's Word Pictures of the New Testament, he
says ANASTRAUROUNTAS and PARADEIGMATIZONTAS are both
present active participles. Is that correct? What
does that mean in context of this verse? Does that
indicate the time of the action?
Thanks
