How to use this template

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> {{:Extractsentence|{{#scripture:Exodus 34:20}}|2}}...

Input: 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 34:20WEB

Output: ²⁰ ...If you will not redeem it, then you shall break its neck.

See also: Erasesentence which erases one or more sentences from the beginning of the input and Erasesentencefromend which does the same thing from the end of the input.
