Mary
Part 4: Mary’s Song (v51-56)
51 He has performed mighty deeds with his arm;
he has scattered those who are proud in their inmost thoughts.
52 He has brought down rulers from their thrones
but has lifted up the humble.
53 He has filled the hungry with good things
but has sent the rich away empty.
54 He has helped his servant Israel, remembering to be merciful
55 to Abraham and his descendants forever,
just as he promised our ancestors.”
56 Mary stayed with Elizabeth for about three months and then returned home.
(Luke 2:51-56)
Mary’s song is a spontaneous song of renewal, revolution and reformation. God is on the march and God is going to do something new! Some scholars believe Mary is looking back on all the stories she has heard about how God has dealt with people in the past. Others think that she is being prophetic and only looking ahead to what God will do. I personally think it is both.
In the Podcast today, we continue looking at Mary’s spontaneous song, that we call the Magnificat! We look at Luke 2:46-50 today. Listen to or download the mp3 to hear more about this most extraordinary yet ordinary woman and the song of worship to, and about, her God.
