Who was Mary, the mother of Jesus?
Published Reviewed
Mary was a young Jewish virgin chosen by God to bear His Son through the Holy Spirit. She displayed faith and humility, saying 'Let it be to me according to your word' (Luke 1:38). She witnessed Jesus' ministry, stood at His cross, and was present at Pentecost. She's honored but not worshiped.
Why this answer? It starts with Luke 1:38, then cross-checks Luke 1:46-55 and John 2:1-11 so the summary stays anchored in Scripture.
