Notes

Luke 1:32–33

These verses echo God’s covenant with David (a binding promise God made with King David; 2 Samuel 7:11–16). This promise became the foundation for the hope of a coming Messiah (the Christ, God’s chosen king and savior; see also Isaiah 9:6–7; 11:1–5; Jeremiah 23:5–6; 33:15–16; Ezekiel 37:24–25).
