Lukas 2:37

2:37 She had lived as a widow since then for eighty-four years. ¹  She never left the temple, worshiping with fasting and prayer night and day. ² 

Roma 1:10

1:10 and I always ask ³  in my prayers, if perhaps now at last I may succeed in visiting you according to the will of God. ⁴ 

[2:37]  ¹ tn Grk “living with her husband for seven years from her virginity and she was a widow for eighty four years.” The chronology of the eighty-four years is unclear, since the final phrase could mean “she was widowed until the age of eighty-four” (so BDAG 423 s.v. ἕως 1.b.α). However, the more natural way to take the syntax is as a reference to the length of her widowhood, the subject of the clause, in which case Anna was about 105 years old (so D. L. Bock, Luke [BECNT], 1:251-52; I. H. Marshall, Luke, [NIGTC], 123-24).

[2:37]  ² sn The statements about Anna worshiping with fasting and prayer night and day make her extreme piety clear.

[1:10]  ³ tn Grk “remember you, always asking.”

[1:10]  ⁴ tn Grk “succeed in coming to you in the will of God.”
