I love that passage so much. I encountered it after a really epic struggle with parts of the New Testament in Greek and it made me feel so much better.

The New Testament was supposed to be so much easier than Attic Greek, they kept telling me; but if you start with Attic Greek, the New Testament is just all blodgy and attenuated and telegraphic and weird. As I expect you know, though possibly you'd express it more elegantly.
