Acts 10:18
Called ( φωνησαντες ). In a loud voice that those inside the house might hear.Asked ( επυνθανοντο ). Imperfect middle of πυνθανομα, old verb to make inquiry especially with an indirect question as here. Kept on inquiring. Westcott and Hort follow B C here and read επυθοντο (second aorist middle, effective aorist). Either makes sense, though the imperfect is more picturesque.
Were lodging ( ξενιζετα ). Present middle indicative retained in indirect question. See on verse 6 for the verb.
