<x-flowed>I would welcome comment from Carl or others on the use of AN in the LXX of
2 Sam. 7:3

" KAI EIPEN NAQAN PROS TON BASILEA PANTA hOSA AN EN TH KARDIA SOU BADIZE
........."

The 'middle' L & S states:
" AN conditional Particle. In attic, it is not joined with pres. or perf.
ind., nor with imperat. of any tense.

What lies behind the use in v.3 of AN followed by an imperative?
And what about NT occurrences?

Regards
Maurice
