Typo in the NT Use of the OT in the Magnificat (Lk 1:46-55)

There appears to be a type in the tool "New Testament Use of the Old Testament" in Mary's Song in Luke 1:46-55. The last item from this song in Luke has this reference: "Luke 1:55-66" and includes as a parallel all of Hannah's song from 1 Samuel 2:1-10. However, Luke 1:55-66 speaks about Mary staying with Elizabeth and the subsequent birth of John. This has little in common with Hannah's Song besides a barren woman giving birth.

Bottom line: It looks like the reference should be Luke 1:46-55, but the verse numbers were inadvertently increased. If it were Luke 1:46-55, then all of Mary's song and all of Hannah's song would be connected.

Normally typos are reported within a resource, but I could not find the option in this tool.
