Hi.
In John 8:39 Jesus said to the Jews EI TEKNA TOU ABRAAM ESTE, TA ERGA TOU ABRAAM EPOIEITE.
I don't know how to understand the imperfect EPOIEITE here.
I would be able to understand if it had been subjunctive or imperative. How should this phrase be translated that does justice to the imperfect indicative  . Thank you.
