Acts 1:26

Then ¹  they cast lots for them, and the one chosen was Matthias; ²  so he was counted with the eleven apostles. ³ 

Le 16:8; Jos 18:10; 1Sa 14:41,42; 1Ch 24:5; Pr 16:22; Jon 1:7; Ac 1:23; Ac 13:19

¹ tn Here καί (kai) has been translated as “then” to indicate the continuity with the preceding verse. Greek style often begins sentences or clauses with “and,” but English style does not.

² tn Grk “and the lot fell on Matthias.”

³ tn Or “he was counted as one of the apostles along with the eleven.”
