Luke 1:58

Her ¹  neighbors and relatives heard that the Lord had shown ²  great mercy to her, and they rejoiced ³  with her.

Ge 21:6; Ru 4:14-17; Ps 113:9; Isa 66:9,10; Lu 1:14; Lu 1:25; Ro 12:15; 1Co 12:26

¹ tn Grk “And her.” Here καί (kai) has not been translated because of differences between Greek and English style.

² tn Grk “had magnified his mercy with her.”

³ tn The verb συνέχαιρον (sunecairon) is an imperfect and could be translated as an ingressive force, “they began to rejoice.”
