Luke 1:23

Context
1:23 When his time of service was over, 1  he went to his home.

Luke 1:56

Context

1:56 So 2  Mary stayed with Elizabeth 3  about three months 4  and then returned to her home.

1 tn Grk “And it happened that as the days of his service were ended.” The introductory phrase ἐγένετο (egeneto, “it happened that”), common in Luke (69 times) and Acts (54 times), is redundant in contemporary English and has not been translated.

2 tn Grk “And.” Here (kai) has been translated as “so” to indicate the conclusion of the topic.

3 tn Grk “her”; the referent (Elizabeth) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

4 sn As is typical with Luke the timing is approximate (about three months), not specific.
