"And they came with haste, and found both Mary and Joseph, and the babe lying in the manger." — Luke 2:16 (ASV)
With haste (σπευσαντες). Aorist active participle of simultaneous action.
Found (ανευραν). Second aorist active indicative of a common Greek verb ανευρισκω, but only in Luke in the N.T. The compound ανα suggests a search before finding.
