1:32He104 will be great,105 and will be called the Son of the Most High,106 and the Lord God will give him the throne of his father107 David.
Footnotes
- 104 Grk “this one.”
- 105 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.
- 106 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.
- 107 Or “ancestor.”
