Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / synecdoche
ἠγαλλίασεν τὸ πνεῦμά μου
exulted the spirit ˱of˲_me
The word spirit also refers to the inner part of a person. Alternate translation: “yes, with everything inside of me, I rejoice”
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / parallelism
ἠγαλλίασεν τὸ πνεῦμά μου
exulted the spirit ˱of˲_me
This statement is parallel to the one in the previous verse. Mary is speaking in poetry. Hebrew poetry was based on this kind of repetition, and it might be good to show that to your readers by including both phrases in your translation rather than combining them. Alternate translation: “yes, with everything inside of me, I rejoice”
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom
ἠγαλλίασεν
exulted
Mary is speaking as if something she is presently doing happened in the past. Alternate translation: “is celebrating”
1:46-55 Mary’s song is the first of three songs of praise in the birth narrative. It is called the Magnificat (“magnifies”), from the first word in the Latin translation. The song has many parallels to Hannah’s prayer in 1 Sam 2:1-10. The fact that God cares for the oppressed and reverses their fortunes is a common theme throughout Luke’s Gospel. The coming of God’s Kingdom brings salvation to rejected and outcast people.
Note: The OET-RV is still only a first draft, and so far only a few words have been (mostly automatically) matched to the Greek words that they’re translated from.
