Hi Charles,You've raised a very interesting question. I did a search in my BibleWorks, and while I cannot claim it is exhaustive, I couldn't find a single instance where this suffix on a finite verb is 1cpl. For years now I've assumed and taught that the suffix is ambiguous. I imagine that the supposed ambiguity comes from the occurrence of the suffix on the preposition min. But, as far as I can tell, the suffix does not represent 1cpl on verbs. In your particular example, I suppose the 3ms suffix can, as is sometimes the case with 3ms suffixes generally, refer to a plural entity. And I see that several translations take it that way.Blessings,JerryJerry ShepherdTaylor SeminaryEdmonton, Alberta
