    Contrary to Merkle in his article, and (I suppose) to John of Japan, I have serious difficulty thinking that a participle of any tense gains imperatival or any other force merely because of a following finite verb form.

    Alas! But if I was not myself and had to choose, I'd choose your expertise over mine. ;)

    I love the word ethnicity as it includes not only every "tribal unit" but especially in Judaism it emphasizes NON-Jews. There are other words for nations, gentiles etc but this encompasses everyone on the planet. Beyond Jew, even beyond Roman Empire.

    Hate the word "race" (unless speaking of humanity as a whole race, distinct from mammals) so don't use it today. Use ethnicity.

    One race...the human race. I agree with you there.

    Young's Literal Translation, "having gone, then, . . ."
    Charles Van der Pool's Apostolic Bible Polyglot Greek-English Interlinear, "Going then, . . ."
    What you hace brought to light, is better. So regarless where we are, we can and should make the gospel known,

    The ASSUMPTION is that a true disciple will go
    Having gone, the COMMAND is to disciple everyone by means of baptism/teaching all things

    That is the Great Omission (for many of us)
