Commentary on Luke 1:50

Theological / Devotional

His mercy. That is, His abounding love and favor, bestowed even when it is least deserved. It has been remarked that grace takes away the fault, and mercy removes the misery, of sin.

Fear him. A typically Hebrew expression for piety, common throughout the OT. Fear is also used in the NT in the sense of godly reverence (Acts 10:2, 22, 35; Col. 3:22; Rev. 14:7; 15:4), though the same word is used also of fright and panic (Matt. 21:46; Mark 11:32; Luke 12:4).
