The verse is not expressing two or three independant thoughts, the two statements about binding and loosing flow from the same thought as the statement of the keys - the thought did not change. No change of thought means no differentiation between the keys and the notion of "binding and loosing".

Anytime this construct is used in Greek, it means there is no differentiation between the thoughts? Or does it just mean they are related thoughts, tied together, but not "undifferentiated."

(Wow, that reads like one of the sentences a few weeks ago about "Begotten.")

Anytime this construct is used in Greek

Anytime this construct is used in *language*, Dave. Or did we fail language class altogether because we don't know how setences and the beginning and end of thoughts work? Sorry that such a huge concept should be dumped on you so late in life. The Greek texts Use Caps to denote the beginning of new thoughts. Again, don't let the facts get in the way of your spinning. Far be it from me to prevent you making yourself look dumb or something. If you want to charge up the hill and tip that cow, go right ahead. The rest of us that understand language will just muse and puzzle and hope you one day learn to read.
