52: και ιησους προεκοπτεν σοφια και ηλικια και χαριτι παρα θεω και ανθρωποις— edit Textus Receptus
52: And Jesus increased in wisdom and stature, and in favour with God and man.— edit KJV text
52: And Jesus advanced in wisdom and age and grace with God and men.— edit Douay text



In favour with God. That is, in proportion to his advance in wisdom. This does not imply that he ever lacked the favour of God, but that God regarded him with favour in proportion as he showed an understanding and spirit like his own.

  • {b} "increased in wisdom" 1Sam 2:26 Lk 2:40 * {5} "stature",

or "age"
