Hebrews 11:4
By faith Abel offered to God a more acceptable sacrifice than Cain, through which faith he was attested as righteous, God himself showing his approval by accepting his gifts. And though (apothanōn | ἀποθανών | aor act ptcp nom sg masc) he (apothanōn | ἀποθανών | aor act ptcp nom sg masc) died (apothanōn | ἀποθανών | aor act ptcp nom sg masc), he still speaks through his faith.
