2:15When45 the angels left them and went back to heaven, the shepherds said to one another, “Let us go over to Bethlehem46 and see this thing that has taken place, that the Lord47 has made known to us.”
Footnotes
- 45 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.
- 46 For location see ; ; ; .
- 47 Note how although angels delivered the message, it was the Lord whose message is made known, coming through them.
