Dear Pastor Pete,
AUTH HN PLHRHS ERGWN AGAQWN KAI ELEHMOSUNWN hWH EPOIEI
She was full of good and merciful works which she used to do
No mystery really. You omitted the rough breathing before the hWN. It is not
the participle of EIMI but the relative pronoun. It is genitive plural,
because it agrees with its antecedent ERGWN which is genitive plural.
That's how it seems to me.
