Her neighbors and relatives This phrase highlights the communal nature of life in ancient Jewish society. In the close-knit communities of first-century Judea, neighbors and relatives played a significant role in personal and family events. The Greek word for "neighbors" (πλησίον, plēsion) implies those who are near, not just in proximity but in relationship. Similarly, "relatives" (συγγενής, syngenēs) indicates those connected by blood or marriage. This communal involvement underscores the importance of shared joy and support within the community, reflecting the biblical principle of rejoicing with those who rejoice (Romans 12:15). heard that the Lord had shown her great mercy and they rejoiced with her Had shewed great mercy upon her.--Literally, had magnified His mercy. The verb is the same as that which opens the Magnificat, and may well be looked upon as a kind of echo of it. The phrase is essentially a Hebrew one. (Comp. 1Samuel 12:24.) Verse 58. - How the Lord had showed great mercy upon her. No doubt the vision of Zacharias in the temple, and his subsequent dumbness, had excited no little inquiry. That the reproach of Elisabeth should be taken away, no doubt few really believed. The birth of her son, however, set a seal upon the reality of the priest's vision. The rejoicings of her family were due to more than the birth of her boy. The story of the angel's message, coupled with the unnsual birth, set men thinking and asking what then would be the destiny of this child.
