{And is alive} (kai anez(8873)en). First aorist active
indicative of anaza(935c), to live again. Literally, he was dead and
he came back to life. {He was lost} ((886e) apol(936c)(9373), periphrastic
past perfect active of apollumi and intransitive, in a lost
state) and he was found (heureth(885c)). He was found, we have to
say, but this aorist passive is really timeless, he is found
after long waiting (effective aorist) The artists have vied with
each other in picturing various items connected with this
wonderful parable.
