KAI EMPTUSANTES EIS AUTON ELABON TON KALAMON KAI
ETUPTON EIS THN KEFALHN AUTOU

Why is ETUPTON in the Imperfect and not the Present?
These guys grab (ELABON) the staff/reed and then
subsequently begin beating him. So, should we not
expect the Present or even the Future tense, not the
Past tense? The beating comes later after they pick up
this staff.
