Exegesis
kai ēren {ἦλθεν … καὶ ἦρεν | ḗlthen … kaí ḗren} ‘he came and took’, presenting Joseph’s actions as a completed sequence. In translation, the participial material is reshaped into relative and descriptive clauses for clarity, and the hina purpose clause is rendered as an English “that he might” or infinitival “to” construction, preserving both the sense of request and the narrative progression.
