Luke 1:24
Compare all
22 But when he came out, he could not speak to them; and they perceived that he had seen a vision in the temple, for he beckoned to them and remained speechless.
23 So it was, as soon as athe days of his service were completed, that he departed to his own house.  
24 Now after those days his wife Elizabeth conceived; and she hid herself five months, saying,
25 “Thus the Lord has dealt with me, in the days when He looked on me, to atake away my reproach among people.”  

Christ’s Birth Announced to Mary

26 Now in the sixth month the angel Gabriel was sent by God to a city of Galilee named Nazareth,
27 to a virgin abetrothed to a man whose name was Joseph, of the house of David. The virgin’s name was Mary.  
28 And having come in, the angel said to her, a“Rejoice, highly favored one, bthe Lord is with you; blessed are you among women!”

Luke 1:24

Conceived (sunelaben). Luke uses this word eleven times and it occurs only five other times in the N.T. It is a very old and common Greek word. He alone in the N.T. has it for conceiving offspring (Luke 1:24, Luke 1:31, Luke 1:36; Luke 2:21) though James 1:15 uses it of lust producing sin. Hobart (Medical Language of Luke, p. 91) observes that Luke has almost as many words for pregnancy and barrenness as Hippocrates (en gastri exein, Luke 21:23; egkuov, Luke 2:5; steira, Luke 1:7; ateknov, Luke 20:28).

Hid (periekruben). Only here in the N.T., but in late Koin‚ writers. Usually considered second aorist active indicative from perikruptw, though it may be the imperfect indicative of a late form perikrubw. If it is aorist it is the constative aorist. The preposition peri makes it mean completely (on all sides) hid.
