Therefore, O faithful Christian, search for truth, hear truth, 
learn truth, love truth, speak the truth, hold the truth, 
defend the truth till death.

PISTEI PEPOIHKEN [MWUSHS] TO PASCA KAI THN PROSCUSIN TOU hAIMATOS (Heb.
11:28).



Zerwick-Grosvenor says that PEPOIHKEN, as perfect, refers to "inauguration
of a rite still observed". This seems reasonable to me, but I also find
perfect forms tossed in as though they were aorists occasionally in the GNT.
Is Zerwick-Grosvenor over-interpreting the perfect here?
