Folks,

	John 6: 36-37, "ALL EIPON hUMIN hOTI KAI 
EWRAKATE ME KAI OU PISTEUETE.  PAN hO DIDWSIN 
MOI hO PATHR PROS EME HXEI, KAI TON ERCOMENON 
PROS ME OU MH EKBALW EXW."

	Please forgive the poor transliteration.  I need to
work with it more.

	Am I correct that the "PAN" and "TON" are neuter
plurals and not masculine plurals?  

	Some commentators suggest that these should
be understood as masculine plurals, referring to "all 
individuals" and not "all things."  Is such an interpretation
good, Greek grammar?

	Would a neuter exclude people or would it 
include people along with everything else?
