NOTE: This is a republished and remastered version of one of our earliest and most popular episodes. We thought it would be a good time to re-release this episode because Kevin is in the midst of reviewing Constantine Campbell's book "Basics of Verbal Aspect in Biblical Greek." Dr. Boneh has no stake in this debate, nor does she know about it.
