<< Luke 1:73 Luke 1:75 >>
Luke 1:74
Delivered (rusqentav). First aorist passive participle of an old verb, ruomai. The accusative case appears, where the dative could have been used to agree with hmin, because of the infinitive latreuein (verse Luke 1:74)
to serve (from latrov, for hire). But Plato uses the word of service for God so that the bad sense does not always exist.
