Contextual Overview
26 And in the sixt moneth, the Angel Gabriel was sent from God, vnto a citie of Galilee, named Nazareth, 27 To a virgine espoused to a man whose name was Ioseph, of the house of Dauid, and the virgins name was Marie. 28 And the Angel came in vnto her, and said, Haile thou that art highly fauoured, the Lord is with thee: Blessed art thou among women. 29 And when she saw him, she was troubled at his saying, and cast in her minde what maner of salutation this should be. 30 And the Angel said vnto her, Feare not, Marie, for thou hast found fauour with God. 31 And behold, thou shalt conceiue in thy wombe, and bring forth a sonne, and shalt call his name Iesus. 32 He shall be great, and shall be called the sonne of the Highest, and the Lord God shall giue vnto him the throne of his father Dauid. 33 And hee shall reigne ouer the house of Iacob for euer, and of his kingdome there shall be no end. 34 Then said Marie vnto the Angel, How shall this be, seeing I know not a man? 35 And the Angel answered and said vnto her, The holy Ghost shall come vpon thee, and the power of the Highest shall ouershadow thee. Therefore also that holy thing which shall bee borne of thee, shall bee called the sonne of God.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
And behold thou shalt conceive in thy womb,.... Though a pure virgin, which never knew a man; and therefore, "a behold", is prefixed to it, as being what was extraordinary and wonderful; as it is also, in the prophesy of it, in Isaiah 7:14 to which the angel manifestly refers, and is, by Matthew cited, as accomplished hereby;
Isaiah 7:14- : Isaiah 7:14- :
and bring forth a Son, and shalt call his name Jesus; which signifies a "Saviour"; and a Saviour Christ is of God's appointing, providing and sending; and a very suitable one, being a spiritual Saviour, and a complete one, both able and willing to save to the uttermost all that believe in him; nor is there any other, nor salvation in any other: he is the Saviour of his people, whom the Father has given him, even of all the elect, whether of Jews or Gentiles; and of them from all their sins, and from all their enemies; and whom he saves with a spiritual and eternal salvation.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
