Aw, Bill, you know this passage is not the same. This is a
perfect participle "hegiasmene" not a present passive, so I'm not sure what
your point is.

I do not know of any -- but
. . . if you are interested, I can show you an example of the KJV
translating a perfect passive (in other words, a completed event) into a
present, ongoing state:
Romans 15:16 "That
I should be the minister of Jesus Christ to the Gentiles, ministering the
gospel of God, that the offering up of the Gentiles might be acceptable,
being sanctified by the Holy Ghost."
A suggested alternative could
be, "having been sanctified by the Holy Ghost." Hey David, what do you
think on this one?

I do not know of any -- but,
contrary to Judy's claim, I can show you several that speak of the act of
our sanctification in the passive voice. Would you like to see some of
them?

KJV translating a perfect passive (in other words, a completed action) into
a present, ongoing tense, if you are interested -- which, by the
way, ought to qualify as another mistake.

minister of Jesus Christ to the Gentiles, ministering the gospel of God,
that the offering up of the Gentiles might be acceptable, being sanctified
by the Holy Ghost."
