The participle ἐλθών (elqwn) has been translated as a finite verb due to requirements of contemporary English style.
2 tn Grk “and taking.” This καί (kai) has not been translated since English normally uses a coordinating conjunction only between the last two elements in a series of three or more. The participle ἄρας (aras) has been translated as a finite verb due to requirements of contemporary English style.

4 tn The participle δήσας (dhsas) has been translated as a finite verb due to requirements of contemporary English style.
5 tn The words “with it” are not in the Greek text, but are implied.
6 tn Grk “and will deliver him over into the hands of” (a Semitic idiom).
