Hello-

I am new to the listserve so forgive me if I do something that is incorrect
in asking this question.

Can anybody comment on Matthew's use of hEWS, specifically in 1:25 and 5:26.
These two verses, and the interpretation of hEWS (until) has been used in
the church to come up with some pretty big doctrines - 1:25 (semper virgo)
and 5:26 (purgatory).  The interesting thing is that these doctrines are
usually met by taking hEWS "until" in two different ways.

Any insight would be appreciated.

In Christ,

Dan
