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,

Luke 4:37

Context
4:37 So 3  the news 4  about him spread into all areas of the region. 5 

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.

3 tn Here καί (kai) has been translated as “so” to indicate resultative nature of the action.

4 tn That is, “information concerning a person or an event – ‘report, news, word, information’” (L&N 33.211).

5 sn Given Luke 4:31, the phrase the region is a reference to Galilee.
