This seems plausible, and accounts well for the examples you quoted, but
what about the following:
NUN EZHTOUN SE LIQASSI hOI IOUDAIOI
John 11:8
With your interpretation, does this mean something like: "the Jews have
FINALLY sought to stone you, are you going there again?"
With Mari's, I think it means "the Jews were just trying to stone you, are
you going there again?"
Now....can we find a litmus example that objectively tells us which
interpretation is correct?
