{I sent} (epempsa). Not literary plural with this
epistolary aorist as in  18,22 . {That ye may be prepared} (hina
pareskeuasmenoi (8874)e). Perfect passive subjunctive in the final
clause, "that ye may really be prepared," "as I said" (kath(9373)
elegon) and not just say that ye are prepared. Paul's very
syntax tells against them.
