Exegesis
The narrative then shifts to the passive verb eklēthē {ἐκλήθη | eklḗthē} ‘was called,’ with the noun phrase to onoma autou Iēsous {τὸ ὄνομα αὐτοῦ Ἰησοῦς | tò ónoma autoû Iēsoûs} ‘the name Jesus.’
In context — Luke 2:21
And when eight days were fulfilled for circumcising Him, His name was called Jesus , which the angel had given before He was conceived in the womb.
