        Comments: It is also possible to translate ἀποτελέω in {S:04201303200028} as ‘am performing,’ but the focus evidently is upon the completion of a series of such healings. The final phrase of {S:04201303200028}, καὶ τῇ τρίτω τελειοῦμαι ‘and on the third day I will be finished,’ points to a possible distinction between ἀποτελέω and τελειόω, in which the first apparently serves to mark the end of a particular series, while the second points to the completion of anything and everything involved.
