The now commonly-used German idiom die Augen gehen über (literally “the eyes overflow”), which today primarily means “amazed” (in the sense of “making big eyes”) was made popular in 1522 in the German New Testament translation by Martin Luther.

The word ‘grace’ in this context can then mean either: reputation, goodwill (among outsiders) — or God’s gracious blessing, which may well include prosperity. This is precisely this aspect that is described in verses 34-36.”
