Oct 19, 2017 at 0:28 comment added Nigel J @SolaGratia Zacharias and Elisabeth were both elderly, presumably passed on. Their son, John, had been executed by Herod. Simeon and Anna were both very aged and long gone. Joseph, we hear no more of, presumably also deceased. And Jesus was crucified, risen and ascended. Then, all that Mary had hid in her heart was still available to be recorded. Wonderful !

Oct 18, 2017 at 18:03 comment added Sola Gratia Thanks for the references @Lucian. These seem to be different, though, which is why I didn't factor it into the question. In the case of Mary she is contemplating "words" in her "heart" (as if to attempt to understand more deeply thngs she 'already knew' or something to the same effect). 'thinking in their hearts' is different, I think, than what is being focused upon here. Mary 'συμβαλλουσα' over the words. Consider the New Testament usages of the word. It's something along the lines of Mary's lack of "wonder" that I detect hereif anything.

Oct 18, 2017 at 16:46 comment added Nigel J +1 I have noticed that repeated expression, by Luke, of Mary. It stands out. I look forward to the answers.
