Luke 1:14

Context

Luke 1:44

Context
1:44 For the instant 4  the sound of your greeting reached my ears, 5  the baby in my womb leaped for joy. 6 

1 tn Grk “This will be joy and gladness.”

2 tn Or “because of.”

3 tn “At his birth” is more precise as the grammatical subject (1:58), though “at his coming” is a possible force, since it is his mission, as the following verses note, that will really bring joy.

4 tn Grk “for behold.”

5 tn Grk “when the sound of your greeting [reached] my ears.”

6 sn On the statement the baby in my womb leaped for joy see both 1:14 and 1:47. This notes a fulfillment of God’s promised word.
