Hi, Peter,

Well, I think this is one case where the former participle is meant to  imply a 
prior, one time action, and the later forms are meant to imply  repeated, 
on-going actions.  In other words, where the Greek tenses work  they way they 
tell you they work.

Subject: [B-Greek] Heb 6,4-6

Dear friends,

I wonder how the switch from the aorist (FWTISQENTAS k.t.l.) to the
present tense (ANAKAINIZEIN, ANASTAUROUNTAS, PARADEIGMATIZONTAS) in Heb
6,4-6 can be explained.

Thank you for your help !
Peter
