A.T. Robertson Commentary Luke 1:48

"For he hath looked upon the low estate of his handmaid: For behold, from henceforth all generations shall call me blessed." — Luke 1:48 (ASV)

The low estate (την ταπεινωσιν). The bride of a carpenter and yet to be the mother of the Messiah. Literal sense here as in 1:52.

Shall call me blessed (μακαριουσιν με). So-called Attic future of an old verb, to felicitate. Elisabeth had already given her a beatitude (μακαρια, 1:45). Another occurs in 11:27. But this is a very different thing from the worship of Mary (Mariolatry) by Roman Catholics. See my The Mother of Jesus: Her Problems and Her Glory.
