Exegesis
The imperfect verb ēn {ἦν | ēn} and predicate plousios {πλούσιος | ploú-si-os} frame his ongoing status, while the imperfect middle enedidysketo {ἐνεδιδύσκετο | e-ne-di-dý-ske-to} emphasizes habitual self-adornment through porphyran {πορφύραν | por-phy-ran} and bysson {βύσσον | býs-son}.
In context — Luke 16:19
Now there was a certain rich man, and he dressed himself in purple and fine linen, and he was feasting in splendor every day.
