Luke 1:36

Context

1:36 “And look, 1  your relative 2  Elizabeth has also become pregnant with 3  a son in her old age – although she was called barren, she is now in her sixth month! 4 

Luke 20:35

Context
20:35 But those who are regarded as worthy to share in 5  that age and in the resurrection from the dead neither marry nor are given in marriage. 6 

1 tn Grk “behold.”

2 tn Some translations render the word συγγενίς (sungeni") as “cousin” (so Phillips) but the term is not necessarily this specific.

3 tn Or “has conceived.”

4 tn Grk “and this is the sixth month for her who was called barren.” Yet another note on Elizabeth’s loss of reproach also becomes a sign of the truth of the angel’s declaration.

5 tn Grk “to attain to.”

6 sn Life in the age to come is different than life here (they neither marry nor are given in marriage). This means Jesus’ questioners had made a false assumption that life was the same both now and in the age to come.
