Exegesis
The interjection idou {ἰδοὺ | i-doù} ‘behold’ signals an emphatic temporal shift, immediately followed by the numeral phrase déka kai oktō etē {δέκα καὶ ὀκτὼ ἔτη | dé-ka kaì òk-tō é-tē} ‘eighteen years,’ which underscores the duration of her affliction.
In context — Luke 13:16
And this woman, a daughter of Abraham, whom Satan bound—behold, for eighteen years—should she not be released from this bond on the Sabbath ?
