UBS Dictionary of the Greek New Testament

noun, f. | -εως | πληρόω

67.69 · Time · A Point of Time with Reference to Duration of Time: Beginning, End

end, completion the totality of a period of time, with the implication of proper completion

ACT 21:26

1 In a number of contexts it is difficult to determine whether the meanings in 67.69 and 67.70 are primarily temporal or aspectual. If the meaning in any one context seems to focus upon the completion of an activity, then the meaning should be classified as aspectual (Domain 68 Aspect), but if the emphasis would seem to be primarily upon the end point of an activity, then one may legitimately classify these meanings as being temporal.
