In John 13:26, active verbal forms occur in the action involving a piece, and the APB renders the clause “after I dip it” and “after dipping the piece.” In Luke 16:24, the aorist active subjunctive occurs in the request that Lazarus put the tip of his finger in water; the APB renders “he may dip the tip of his finger in water.” Revelation 19:13 uses a perfect passive participle for a robe, which the APB presents as “a robe dipped in blood.”
In the Anselm Project Bible: The APB uses “dip,” “dipping,” and “dipped” in these verses, presenting the action with a piece, a finger, and a robe. These renderings confirm the clauses' overall presentation rather than isolate each form mechanically.
