What does the Bible say about virgin mary?
Bible Topic · WEB
The Bible presents Mary as a uniquely blessed yet humble servant of God, chosen by grace to bear Jesus Christ, the promised Savior. Isaiah 7:14 foretells the virgin’s conception, fulfilled when Gabriel announces to Mary that she will bear the Son of the Most High (Luke 1:27, 35). Mary responds in faithful submission, saying, “Let it be to me according to your word” (Luke 1:38). Elizabeth calls her blessed as the mother of her Lord, and Mary herself magnifies God for His mercy and saving power (Luke 1:42-48). Scripture honors Mary’s faith and calling, while directing worship and trust to God alone through her Son.
