Gill's Notes on the Bible
And the angel said unto her, c] Observing the consternation and confusion she was in
fear not, Mary; he calls her by her name, signifying that she was well known to him, as the saints are to the ministering angels, who are often sent unto them, encamp about them, and do them many good offices; and bids her not be afraid, he had no ill design upon her, nor brought any ill news to her:
for thou has found favour, or "found grace with God"; and what that particular grace and favour was, is expressed in the following verses.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
Fear not, Mary - Do not be alarmed at this appearance of an angel. He only comes to announce to you good tidings. Similar language was addressed by an angel to Joseph. See the notes at Matthew 1:20.
Thou hast found favour with God - Eminent favor or mercy in being selected to be the mother of the Messiah.
