It might be a stimulating experience, whether you agree or not. It might be a stimulating experience, whether you agree or not. There is much more as you all know. So, I think there is more to Eph.
Languages seem to vary on a continuum with respect to imperfectives.
Still others, like, I would claim, Greek, allow stative verbs to have a stative reading in the imperfective. This, I believe, is to be avoided. SO there may be justification for the active 'being dead' interpretation, i.e. active maintenance of a state of spiritual ignorance. I do not, however, think that it comes fromthe imperfective alone. Don't try it on an old hand.
