{Were waiting} ((886e) prosdok(936e)). Periphrastic imperfect again. An old Greek verb for expecting. Appears in papyri and inscriptions. It denotes mental direction whether hope or fear. {They marvelled} (ethaumazon). Imperfect tense, were wondering. The Talmud says that the priest remained only a brief time in the sanctuary. {While he tarried} (en t(9369) chronizein). See verse 8 for the same idiom. |
