(Luke 1:26-38) In the sixth month the angel Gabriel was sent from God to a city of Galilee named Nazareth, to a virgin betrothed to a man whose name was Joseph, of the house of David. And the virgin\u2019s name was Mary. And he came to her and said, \u201cGreetings, O favored one, the Lord is with you!\u201d But she was greatly troubled at the saying, and tried to discern what sort of greeting this might be. And the angel said to her, \u201cDo not be afraid, Mary, for you have found favor with God. And behold, you will conceive in your womb and bear a son, and you shall call his name Jesus. He will be great and will be called the Son of the Most High. And the Lord God will give to him the throne of his father David, and he will reign over the house of Jacob forever, and of his kingdom there will be no end.\u201d<\/p>\n

And Mary said to the angel, \u201cHow will this be, since I am a virgin?\u201d<\/p>\n

And the angel answered her, \u201cThe Holy Spirit will come upon you, and the power of the Most High will overshadow you; therefore the child to be born will be called holy\u2014the Son of God. And behold, your relative Elizabeth in her old age has also conceived a son, and this is the sixth month with her who was called barren. For nothing will be impossible with God.\u201d And Mary said, \u201cBehold, I am the servant of the Lord; let it be to me according to your word.\u201d And the angel departed from her.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
