This Chapter Verse Commentaries:

Conceived (συνέλαβεν)

Mr. Hobart (“Medical Language of Luke”) says that the number of words referring to pregnancy, barrenness, etc., used by Luke, is almost as large as that used by Hippocrates. Compare Luk 1:31; Luk 1:24; Luk 2:5; Luk 1:7; Luk 20:28. All of these, except Luk 1:24, are peculiar to himself, and all, of course, in common use among medical writers.

Hid (περιέκρυβεν)

Only here in New Testament. Περί signifies completely; entire seclusion.
