NETBible

He¹ will be great,² and will be called the Son of the Most High,³ and the Lord God will give him the throne of his father⁴ David.

NET Notes

¹tn Grk “this one.”

²sn Compare the description of Jesus as great here with 1:15, “great before the Lord.” Jesus is greater than John, since he is Messiah compared to a prophet. Great is stated absolutely without qualification to make the point.

³sn The expression Most High is a way to refer to God without naming him. Such avoiding of direct reference to God was common in 1st century Judaism out of reverence for the divine name.

⁴tn Or “ancestor.”
