rwp@John:20:4 @{They both} (\hoi duo\). "The two" (Peter and the other disciple whom Jesus loved). {Ran together} (\etrechon homou\). Imperfect active of \trech“\. It was a race in eagerness to reach the tomb of Jesus. {Outran Peter} (\proedramen tacheion tou Petrou\). Second aorist active indicative of \protrech“\, old verb, in N.T. only here and strkjv@Luke:19:4|, to run on before (ahead). "He ran ahead more swiftly (see strkjv@John:13:27|) than Peter" (ablative case after comparative adverb \tacheion\, _Koin‚_ for older \thƒsson\). {First} (\pr“tos\). Predicative nominative (not adverb \proton\) and superlative used where only two involved. John won the race.

rwp@Luke:9:34 @{Overshadowed them} (\epeskiazen autous\). Imperfect active (aorist in strkjv@Matthew:17:5|) as present participle in strkjv@Mark:9:7|, inchoative, the shadow began to come upon them. On Hermon as on many high mountains a cloud will swiftly cover the cap. I have seen this very thing at Blue Ridge, North Carolina. This same verb is used of the Holy Spirit upon Mary (Luke:1:35|). Nowhere else in the N.T., though an old verb (\epi, skiaz“\, from \skia\, shadow). {As they entered into the cloud} (\en t“i eiselthein autous eis tˆn nephelˆn\). Luke's idiom of \en\ with the articular infinitive again (aorist active this time, on the entering in as to them). All six "entered into" the cloud, but only Peter, James, and John "became afraid" (\ephobˆthˆsan\, ingressive first aorist passive).
