Romans 6:13

6:13 yield (h-2) There is a distinction between the present tense, which has a continuous present sense, and the aorist, which gives the act in itself.

'Yield yourselves to God' and 'yield your members,' ver. 15 (aorists), mean let it have been done, as a once accomplished act. dead, (i-20) Lit. 'as out of dead alive.' The order of the words gives a contrasted force. not merely that they came thence. But 'out of dead alive' is hardly English.
