Ellicott's Commentary

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers(22) In a bodily shape.--The words are peculiar to St. Luke, and tend to confirm the traditional symbolism which finds in the dove the emblem of the Holy Spirit. They, at least, fall in naturally with this view; but the other construction, that the Holy Spirit descended, after the manner of a dove, first hovering and then resting, in a bodily form (undefined) of some sort, is, at least, not excluded.Parallel Commentaries ...Greekandκαὶ (kai)ConjunctionStrong's 2532: And, even, also, namely. theτὸ (to)Article - Accusative Neuter SingularStrong's 3588: The, the definite article.
