Luke 1:46 - Forerunner Commentary

Luke 1:46

44 For indeed, as soon as the voice of your greeting sounded in my ears, the babe leaped in my womb for joy.

45 ^aBlessed is she who believed, for there will be a fulfillment of those things which were told her from the Lord.”

The Song of Mary

46 And Mary said:
^a“My soul¹ magnifies the Lord,

47 And my spirit has ^arejoiced in ^bGod my Savior.

48 For ^aHe has regarded the lowly state of His maidservant;
For behold, henceforth ^ball generations will call me blessed.

49 For He who is mighty ^ahas done great things for me,
And ^bholy is His name.

50 And ^aHis mercy is on those who fear Him
From generation to generation.

51 ^aHe has shown strength with His arm;
^bHe has scattered the proud in the imagination of their hearts.

52 ^aHe has put down the mighty from their thrones,
And exalted the lowly.
