Luca 1:40 Meaning and Commentary

Luke 1:40

Luca 1:40 In-Context

38 E Maria disse: Ecco, io son l’ancella del Signore; siami fatto secondo la tua parola. E l’angelo si partì da lei.
39 In que’ giorni Maria si levò e se ne andò in fretta nella regione montuosa, in una città di Giuda,
40 ed entrò in casa di Zaccaria e salutò Elisabetta.
41 E avvenne che come Elisabetta ebbe udito il saluto di Maria, il bambino le balzò nel seno; ed Elisabetta fu ripiena di Spirito Santo,
42 e a gran voce esclamò: Benedetta sei tu fra le donne, e benedetto è il frutto del tuo seno!
