[1:25]  2 tn Grk “in the days.”

[1:25]  3 tn Grk “has looked on me” (an idiom for taking favorable notice of someone).

[1:25]  4 sn Barrenness was often seen as a reproach or disgrace (Lev 20:20-21; Jer 22:30), but now at her late age (the exact age is never given in Luke’s account), God had miraculously removed it (see also Luke 1:7).

[1:25]  5 tn Grk “among men”; but the context clearly indicates a generic use of ἄνθρωπος (anqrwpo") here.
