Greetings:

In Gen 9.27 Accordance tags PLATUNAI as present active indicative. If 
memory serves me right, though, this is an aorist active optative. In 
this case PLATUNAI would be a voluntative optative and PLATUNAI hO QEOS 
TWi IAFEQ would mean something like, "May God make room for Japheth." 
Does this seem right?
