Luke 4:17

Context
4:17 and the scroll of the prophet Isaiah was given to him. He 1  unrolled 2  the scroll and found the place where it was written,

1 tn Grk “And unrolling the scroll he found.” Here καί (kai) has not been translated because of differences between Greek and English style. Instead a new sentence has been started in the translation.

2 tn Grk “opening,” but a scroll of this period would have to be unrolled. The participle ἀναπτύξας (anaptuxa") has been translated as a finite verb due to the requirements of contemporary English style.
