Luke 1:35, And the angel answered and said to her, “The Holy Spirit will come upon you, and the power of the Highest will overshadow you; therefore, also, that Holy One who is to be born [of you] will be called the Son of God.

. . . of you . . . . Is missing.

At Luke 1:35, the 1534 Tyndale's New Testament has "And the angel answered and said unto her: The holy Ghost shall come upon thee, and the power of the Highest shall overshadow thee. Therefore also that holy thing which shall be born, shall be called the Son of God."

. . . ἐκ σοῦ . . . in Luke 1:35. Codex Ephraemi Rescriptus, also known as Codex C, is an important 5th-century Greek manuscript of the Bible.

Neither does the American Standard Version(ASV).

Apparently, from searching about this, it depends upon which early manuscript is used as to whether it includes "ἐκ σοῦ".

The ASV Luke 1:35 has translation note: Some ancient authorities insert of thee.

In what way do you suppose we could potentially miss out on important doctrine by having "of you" omitted? The context of Luke 1, along with many other references, clearly establishes that Mary is the mother of Christ.

The actual issue is the KJV has "of thee" as it's text.

The issue of said text being the reading of Luke 1:35 God breathed original autograph is an all important question. But not the topic.

The whole context is the angel Gabriel telling Mary that she will bear a Son. Mary asks how such a thing could be, since she does not know (in the sense of having intimate relations with) a man. Whether or not the words "of thee" are included in Gabriel's reply in verse 35, the context shows that he is talking of the Baby Mary will bear. It wouldn't make any sense at all for Mary to ask, "How can I have a baby?", then for Gabriel to answer about somebody else having a baby.

The extra words are missing from most editions of theTextus Receptus . It's missing in Stephanus and Elzever editions. I believe it is in Beza's who might of gotten it from the Latin. It's in the Anglo Saxon and Wycliffe Versions.

Missing from the Majority Text as well.

English Majority Text Version 2009​

And the angel answered and said to her, "The Holy Spirit shall come upon you, and the power of the Most High shall overshadow you; therefore, also, that Holy Baby which is to be born shall be called the Son of God
