Indeed, the messages from Donald and James were useful! (Is Donald new here?
I don't remember him, but I'm not good with faces...) I've made it through
participles, but I still need to work my way through infinitives. Time to

Am I right in assuming that TOU PLEUSAI is being used in the same way (tou +
inf. with hENEKA omitted) in the following?

Jonah 1:3 KAI ANESTH IWNAS <TOU FUGEIN> EIS QARSIS EK PROSWPOU KURIOU KAI
KATEBH EIS IOPPHN KAI hEUREN PLOION BADIZON EIS QARSIS KAI EDWKEN TO NAULON
AUTOU KAI ENEBH EIS AUTO <TOU PLEUSAI> MET AUTWN EIS QARSIS EK PROSWPOU KURIOU.

Thanks!
