Dear Elizabeth,

You wrote:

One could expect a counter argument to this along the lines that EN +  
Dative can also be found with an 'associative' semantic value.

That's the nuance that I was thinking about. I think of Jn 1:14, for
example:

KAI hO LOGOS...ESKHNWSEN EN hHMIN. 

I don't doubt that ESKHNWSEN MEQ' hHMWN would mean something slightly
different in the ear of a Koine Greek speaker, but I can't put my finger on
the difference with any confidence.
