Some clear concrete examples as to what you mean by Hebrew tense and aspect would very helpful. We have already mentioned here on several occasions that the Hebrew verb is but a root plus personal pronouns for the actors involved in the act alluded to. There are, otherwise, no special time markers in Hebrew. It may all depend on the nature of the act and its circumstances. For instance, the קפאו QAPU, from the act QAPA (related to קבע 'fixed', and גבע 'raised'), 'freeze, solidify', of Ex. 15:8, the -U are the waters, that are here at the receiving end of the act ––– it happened to them, whereas the שברו $ABRU of Jer. 5:5 refers to the act שבר $ABAR, 'break', committed by perpetrator -U on another body. Another example. The commandment LO TI-RCAX is 'no you kill (another person, ever)', whereas TE-RACAX is 'you kill (by another person, later)'.
