Study Lenses
The verse centers on "angel", "said", "fear", "mary", "thou", "hast", "found", and "favor". It is saying that the verse draws attention to "angel" and "said", so its meaning should be read from those terms before moving to application.
The nearby context moves from verse 29's "But she was greatly troubled at the..." into verse 31's "And behold thou shalt conceive in thy...", so "angel" and "said" belong inside that flow. In Luke context, the local focus is Christ, faith, and discipleship.
A plain takeaway is to answer the verse's own emphasis on "angel" and "said" with trust shaped by these words, not by a vague optimism outside the passage.
