Luke 4:16-21

κατὰ τὸ εἰωθὸς : the reference most probably is, not to the custom of Jesus as a boy during His private life, but to what He had been doing since He began His ministry. He used the synagogue as one of His chief opportunities. (So J. Weiss and Hahn against Bengel, Meyer, Godet, etc.) That Jesus attended the synagogue as a boy and youth goes without saying. ἀνέστη, stood up, the usual attitude in reading (“both sitting and standing were allowed at the reading of the Book of Esther,” Schürer, Div. II., vol. ii., p. 79); either as requested by the president or of His own accord, as a now well-known teacher.
