Luke 1:42 - Blessed is the Fruit of your womb vs Blessed is the child you will bear

[TimothyH]

D-R: 11 times. 5-6 I was trying to hit a safe average depending on translation.

Interesting.

Deuteronomy 7:13 reads “fruit of your body” in the RSV while the DR reads “Fruit of your womb.”

Same with Deuteronomy 28:11, 18, 53, etc.

It’s just that “Blessed is the fruit of your womb” is worded more old-fashionedly. They both mean the same thing, but they’re equally as beautiful.

Interesting.

Deuteronomy 7:13 reads “fruit of your body” in the RSV while the DR reads “Fruit of your womb.”

But in the Greek, it’s ‘born’ of (or ‘descended’ of) your womb and ‘fruit’ of your lands, which gets translated into the Latin as “fruit of your womb and fruit of your lands.” So much for a Hebrew agricultural reference, eh?
