Lucas 1:14

14 Y tendrás gozo y alegría, y muchos se regocijarán por su nacimiento.

Lucas 1:14 Meaning and Commentary

Luke 1:14

And thou shalt have joy and gladness
Not only because of his having a son; but because this his son would be the prophet of the Highest; would go before the Lord, and prepare his ways; give knowledge of salvation to many, and light to them that were in darkness, and guide their feet in the way of peace: all which, and more, he afterwards expresses in his song, whereby this part of the angel's prediction had its accomplishment:

and many shall rejoice at his birth;
as the neighbours and cousins of his parents did; see ( Luke 1:58 ) and not only they, but all others, who, afterwards had knowledge of him as prophet, and as the forerunner of the Messiah.

Lucas 1:14 In-Context

12 Al verlo, Zacarías se turbó, y el temor se apoderó de él.

13 Pero el ángel le dijo: No temas, Zacarías, porque tu petición ha sido oída, y tu mujer Elisabet te dará a luz un hijo, y lo llamarás Juan.

14 Y tendrás gozo y alegría, y muchos se regocijarán por su nacimiento.

15 Porque él será grande delante del Señor; no beberá ni vino ni licor, y será lleno del Espíritu Santo aun desde el vientre de su madre.

16 Y él hará volver a muchos de los hijos de Israel al Señor su Dios.
