--- which is an indirect question, as in 1:62 where Zerwick, Maximilian,&
Grosvenor, Mary. A Grammatical Analysis of the Greek New Testament. Rome,
notes:
>> Luke inclined to introduce indirect questions with the article which in
such cases is untranslateable.<<
Apart from this, the other examples are 19:48; 22:4,23,24 and Ac. 4:21; 22:30
If you have access to BDF [ Blass-Debrunner-Funk: Greek Grammar of the New
Testament, Chicago 1961 ] you might like to look at ss. 267.2
BTW, did you note that rare NT form, the optative in:
TO TIS AN EIH MEIZWN AOUTWN. ?
11 of the 12 occurrences of the optative of EIMI are in Luke-Acts.
