• The expressions “found favor” (ευρες χαριν; eures charin) and “highly favored” (κεχαριτωμενη; kecharitomene) have not at all the same meaning. Personally she had found favor, so that she was not to fear: but God had sovereignly bestowed on her this grace, this immense favor, of being the mother of the Lord. In this she was the object of God’s sovereign favor. (“Luke 1” by J.N. Darby)
