‏ Romans 5:21

That--even so grace might reign ( ινα--ουτος κα η χαρις βασιλευση ). Final ινα here, the purpose of God and the goal for us through Christ. Lightfoot notes the force of the aorist indicative ( εβασιλευσεν, established its throne) and the aorist subjunctive ( βασιλευση, might establish its throne), the ingressive aorist both times. "This full rhetorical close has almost the value of a doxology" (Denney).
