Note 1 topic: grammar-connect-logic-result
διὸ
therefore
The connecting word Therefore introduces a reason-result relationship. The reason is that every believer has been given a spiritual gift. The result is that the Scripture says Jesus gave gifts to men. Use a phrase in your language that connects a reason to a result.
ἀναβὰς εἰς ὕψος
/having/_gone_up to height
Alternate translation: “When Christ went up into heaven”
4:8 He led a crowd of captives may refer to Christ’s victory over spiritual powers (see 1:21-22; Col 2:15), or to his capture of disobedient sinners and making them believers through the power of the Good News message.
• Christ gave gifts to his people (see Eph 4:11-12).
OET (OET-LV) Therefore he_is_saying:
Having_gone_up to height, he_captured captivity, he_gave gifts to_ the _people.
OET (OET-RV) just as it was written,
⇔ “When he ascended to heaven,
⇔ he eliminated captivity
⇔ and gave gifts to people.”
Note: The OET-RV is still only a first draft, and so far only a few words have been (mostly automatically) matched to the Hebrew or Greek words that they’re translated from.
