should παρήγγελλεν in Luke 8.29 be tagged imperfect rather than aorist?

I think you should tag it as imperfect because the form is imperfect, isn't it? You can't tag based on textual variations

@seumasjeltzz Yeah, I just wanted a second opinion in case I was missing something. Finding this was an unexpected consequence of writing my next morphology tour blog post :-)

Oddly:

  1. Logos tags it aorist (even for the παρήγγελλεν form) which makes me wonder if they just transferred an analysis from a different text (like I did back in 2010).

  2. Morpheus gives both an aorist and an imperfect analysis as possibilities.
