NET Notes |
1 tn Grk “And it happened that when.” 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. Here καί (kai) has not been translated because of differences between Greek and English style. 2 map For location see Map5 B1; Map7 E2; Map8 E2; Map10 B4. 3 sn Note how although angels delivered the message, it was the Lord whose message is made known, coming through them. |
