I agree that BAPTIZONTES and DIDASKONTES is the way or means that
MAQHTEUSATE is carried out.
GRAMMATICALLY, does the BAPTIZONTES occur at the same time as the
DIDASKONTES? Or, GRAMMATICALLY, can it be said that the BAPTIZONTES occurs
1) prior to or 2) subsequent to the DIDASKONTES?
Does the action in the participle take its time from the lead verb? If they
do take their time from the lead verb, how can we GRAMMATICALLY say that one
occurs before the other?
Does that clarify my question a little?
Thanks,
Kevin Cauley

I'm looking at Goodwin's Greek Grammar.(By the way, what is the general
opinion on this grammar? Is it considered any good?) In the discusson of
the circumstantial participle, he lists means or manner as one usage. Is
it too much of a stretch to say that BAPTIZONTES and DIDASKONTES is the
way or means that MAQHTEUSATE is carried out?
