Dear David,
 
Although some weighty textual evidence supports the imperative form(s) for vs 22-24, the syntax is better explained with the infinitives in light of the undisputed existence of hUMAS (vs 22).
 
...KAQWS ESTIN ALHQEIA EN TWi IHSOU [that/so that/in order that] APOQESQAI hUMAS...ANANEOUSQAI [hUMAS]...ENDUSASQAI [hUMAS] ...
 
Cordially in Christ,
 
Malcolm Robertson

My question is on the verbs here. Should the two Aorist's be handled as
past tense or as

imperatives. Why?



Having put off.or as imperatives.Put off.? What impact does the ANANEOUSQAI

have on these Aorists?
