Mary, the Mother of Jesus Part I
Introduction:
Mary, the mother of Jesus, is probably the most beloved woman in Christian history, the favorite subject of many painters, sculptors and musicians, but the Bible is sparse in its information of her. It gives us few details about this beloved woman who was honored by God by allowing her to bear our Savior on earth. Much of what we believe about her comes from tradition, rather than Scripture. However, we do know that she was a virgin (Isa. 7:14) and Luke 1:27, that she was engaged to Joseph (v, 26), that she favor with God (v. 29), and that she was obedient to God (Luke 1:38). Our first glimpse of Mary is through Old Testament prophecy.

“My soul glorifies the Lord, and my spirit rejoices in God my Savior, for he has been mindful of the humble state of his servant. From now on all generations will call me blessed, for the Mighty One has done great things for me–holy is his name. His mercy extends to those who fear Him, from generation to generation. He has performed mighty deeds with His arm; He has scattered those who are proud in their inmost thoughts. He has brought down rulers from their thrones, but has lifted up the humble. He has filled the hungry with good things but has sent the rich away empty. He has helped his servant Israel, remembering to be merciful to Abraham and his descendants forever, even as He said to our fathers.”
