Luke 1:42 (KJV)
Commentary on Luke 1:42
Elisabeth's Spirit-filled greeting proclaims Mary 'blessed among women' and 'blessed is the fruit of thy womb.' The term 'blessed' (Greek 'eulogēmenē,' εὐλογημένη) indicates divine favor and approval. Elisabeth's recognition of Mary's special status and the blessing of her child comes through prophetic insight—the Holy Spirit reveals what Elisabeth could not know naturally. This greeting echoes Jael's blessing (Judges 5:24) and anticipates Mary's Magnificat. The 'fruit of thy womb' language emphasizes Jesus' true humanity—conceived in Mary, genuinely human.
