Would it be grammatically correct to say that Peter
arrived to where Jesus was standing on the water by
virtue of the use of the Aorist? I recall reading in
the archives that PROS has the idea of movement toward
which is why I am asking since the Aorist "went" + the
idea of movement toward Jesus seems strange. I note
also that Jesus had to only reach to grab Peter once
he began to "drink down" water.
