Exegesis
The main narrative verb is ethekan {ἔθηκαν | éthēkan} “they placed,” whose goal is expressed by the prepositional phrase eis mnemeion {εἰς μνημεῖον | eis mnēmeîon} “into a tomb.” The Greek thus moves in a clear sequence: completion of what was written, removal from the cross, and placement in the tomb. The English renderings preserve this temporal and logical flow by using “when” for the initial clause, keeping the participial phrase “having taken Him down” close to the main verb, and representing the prepositional phrases with natural equivalents “from the tree/cross” and “into a tomb.”
Root and etymology
didōmidelta–iota–delta–omicron–mu–iota
“to give, grant, allow”
In context — Acts 13:29
And when they had completed all the things that were written concerning Him , having taken Him down from the tree , they placed Him in a tomb.
