Ye are not come (ou proselhluqate). Perfect active indicative of proserxomai. There is no word here in the Greek for "a mount" like orei in verses Hebrews 12:20, Hebrews 12:22 (and Exodus 19:12 f.; Deuteronomy 4:11), but it is clearly understood since the dative participles agree with it unless they be taken as descriptive of puri ("a palpable and kindled fire " when puri would be the dative case after proselhluqate).
That might be touched (yhlafwmenw). Present passive participle (dative case) of yhlafaw, old verb to handle, to touch (Luke 24:39).
That burned with fire (kekaumenw puri). Perfect passive participle of kaiw, old verb to burn, with instrumental case puri (fire), unless the other view (above) is correct.
