I've got a question on the meaning of aedunanto in 1 Kings 8:11. My
understanding is that this is a Descriptive Imperfect indicating there
was a continuous (for a period of time) disabling of the priests to stand
up and perform their ministry.

In other words, because the special manifestation of God's glory entered
the room (the glory cloud), they were physically unable to stand up and
do their priestly functions for a period of time.

Two questions: A) Is that a correct interpretation?
B) Is that a correct translation by the LXX translators from Hebrew to
Greek?
