Greek Commentary for Luke 1:45
It is not certain whether οτι hoti here is “that” or “because.” It makes good sense either way. See also Luke 7:16. This is the first beatitude in the New Testament and it is similar to the last one in the Gospels spoken to Thomas to discourage his doubt (John 20:29). Elisabeth wishes Mary to have full faith in the prophecy of the angel. This song of Elisabeth is as real poetry as is that of Mary (Luke 1:47-55) and Zacharias (Luke 1:68-70). All three spoke under the power of the Holy Spirit. These are the first New Testament hymns and they are very beautiful. Plummer notes four strophes in Mary‘s Magnificat (Luke 1:46-48, Luke 1:49, Luke 1:50, Luke 1:51-53, Luke 1:54, Luke 1:55). Every idea here occurs in the Old Testament, showing that Mary‘s mind was full of the spiritual message of God‘s word. [source]

We have here an ambiguous οτι hoti as in Luke 1:45, which can be either the relative “that” or the casual οτι hoti “because” or “for,” as the Revised Version has it. Either makes good sense. Luke adds here δυναμει dunamei (with power) to Mark‘s “authority” So Luke where Mark has “and they obey him” (και υπακουουσιν αυτωι kai upakouousin autōi). [source]
Only here and Luke 1:45. The act or process of consummating. By this word is signified the establishment of a perfect fellowship between God and the worshipper. See Hebrews 9:9; Hebrews 10:1. [source]
