And she spake out. This word х anefooneese (G400)] is often used classically of persons who burst into poetic exclamations:
With a loud voice, and said, Blessed art thou among women (that is, most blessed of all women), and blessed is the fruit of thy womb.

But the rapt spirit of this honoured woman sees all as already accomplished.
