This template erases one or more sentences from the beginning of the first parameter, based upon the number specified in the second parameter (default 1).

The purpose is to be able to partially quote a verse of scripture, but allow for input from the different translations.

Example:

<sup>19</sup> {{:Erasesentence|{{#scripture:Exodus 34:19-20}}|1}}...

Input: 19 “All that opens the womb is mine; and all your livestock that is male, the firstborn of cow and sheep. 20 You shall redeem the firstborn of a donkey with a lamb. If you will not redeem it, then you shall break its neck. You shall redeem all the firstborn of your sons. No one shall appear before me empty. Exodus 34:19-20WEB

Output: ¹⁹ ...19 and all your livestock that is male, the firstborn of cow and sheep. 20 You shall redeem the firstborn of a donkey with a lamb. If you will not redeem it, then you shall break its neck. You shall redeem all the firstborn of your sons. No one shall appear before me empty. Exodus 34:19-20WEB

See also: Erasesentencefromend which does the same thing from the end of the input, and Extractsentence which allows extraction of one of the sentences in the input.
