Lk 1,1-4 - Teofil bol dajaký popredný muž, o ktorom sa hovorí aj v Sk 1, 1. Tento predhovor nám jasne poukazuje na to, že evanjelium nie je dajakým ľudovým rozprávaním, ale dielom doloženým vierohodnými svedectvami.
Lk 1,5 - Dávid pri novom zriadení starozákonnej bohoslužby zadelil kňazov do 24 tried. Každá trieda konala týždenne službu v chráme. Lósom sa rozhodlo, kto akú službu má vo svojej triede konať.

Lk 1,34-35 - Z týchto veršov sa dá usudzovať, že Panna Mária mala sľub trvalej čistoty a panenstva. Preto teraz nerozumie, že Boh chce, aby bola matkou. Anjel jej vysvetlí, že počatie bude dielom Svätého Ducha. Bude aj pannou, aj matkou. Tretie evanjelium dosť často uvádza činnosť Svätého Ducha (1, 15; 1, 35; 1, 41; 1, 67; 2, 25; 2, 26; 2,27; 3, 16. 22; 4, 1; 10, 21; 12, 12; 24, 49).

Lk 1,39 - Mesto medzi vrchmi v blízkosti Jeruzalema, kde býval Zachariáš so svojou manželkou, je podľa tradície dnešné Ain Karim vo vzdialenosti asi 6 km na západ od Jeruzalema. Z Galiley to bola asi štvordňová cesta.
Lk 1,46-55 - Máriin chválospev Magnifikat je básnická skladba žalmového druhu, celá preniknutá myšlienkami zo žalmov a z iných starozákonných spisov. Mária ďakuje Bohu a chváli ho za jeho veľké činy, ktoré spôsobil v jej živote (46-50), ďalej hovorí o tom, ako veľkolepo si Boh počína pri riadení osudov celého ľudstva (51-53) a napokon o jeho vernosti a o prisľúbeniach vyvolenému ľudu (54-55).
Lk 1,59 - Na ôsmy deň po narodení bol Ján podrobený obradu obriezky, ktorý znamenal prijatie do zmluvy. Vtedy dali dieťaťu aj meno, čo bolo spojené s rodinnou slávnosťou.

"Prorokovať" v Písme znamená vo všeobecnosti hovoriť z Božieho vnuknutia; v užšom zmysle slova aj predpovedať.
