Adam Clarke, on Luke 1:37
Adam Clarke · 1762–1832
Luke 1:37 · Douay-Rheims
“Because no word shall be impossible with God.”
On this verse:
“For with God nothing shall be impossible - Words of the very same import with those spoken by the Lord to Sarah, when he foretold the birth of Isaac, Gen 18:14, Is any thing too hard for the Lord? As there can be no doubt that Mary perceived this allusion to the promise and birth of Isaac, so she must have had her faith considerably strengthened by reflecting on the intervention of God in that case.”
