NETBible

And the child grew and became strong,¹ filled with wisdom,² and the favor³ of God⁴ was upon him.

NET Notes

¹tc Most mss (A Θ Ψ Ë^1,13 33 Ï) read πνεύματι (pneumati, “in spirit”) after “became strong,” but this looks like an assimilation to Luke 1:80. The better witnesses (א B D L N W pc lat co) lack the word.

²sn With the description grew and became strong, filled with wisdom Luke emphasizes the humanity of Jesus and his growth toward maturity.

³tn Or “grace.”

⁴sn On the phrase the favor of God see Luke 1:66.
