At least relative to “average” Greek, I think of Mark as more paratactic, to the exclusion of excessive dependent clauses. I wonder (?) if the authors are referring to the periphrastic use of the participle - i.e. after a finite form of “to be” - which works very differently from a normal (subordinating) participle in the syntax of the sentence. | |
