Acts 8:31

How can I, except some one shall guide me? (Pwv gar an dunaimhn ean me tiv odhghsei me). This is a mixed condition, the conclusion coming first belongs to the fourth class (undetermined with less likelihood of being determined) with an and the optative, but the condition (ean, instead of the usual ei, and the future indicative) is of the first class (determined or fulfilled. Robertson, Grammar, p. 1022), a common enough phenomenon in the Koin‚. The eunuch felt the need of some one to guide (odhgew from odhgov, guide, and that from odov, way, and egeomai, to lead).
