Mary’s Personal Praise
My soul - stands for.
This is not a disembodied song.
Magnify- just like it sounds.
She wants to the Lord to grow in everyone’s perception.
She desires for everyone to say, “Look how great He is!”
Again she poetically uses “my” instead of I.
She celebrates, she is overjoyed.
Luke 1:58 “58 And her neighbors and relatives heard that the Lord had shown great mercy to her, and they rejoiced with her.”
The same word is used here.
The rejoicing of the birth of John the baptist.
She ends the the verse with the object of the her rejoicing.
“My saviour” - Mary.
Her song is a song of praise towards her saviour.
This is an old testament, way to refer to God.
The God who is my deliverer.
The God who is saves me.
What does this for Mary? - She is aware of her own personal need for deliverance.
Mary here is anticipating the use of the language of Luke later on.
Look at Luke 1:69 and Luke 1:77
What do you imagine is Mary’s posture is?
Mary is rejoicing that God has saved her from her own sins.
For you and I that isn’t a shocking statement.
However for millions around the globe.
That are involved in an erroroneous teaching of Marialatry, or the worship of Mary.
That is a very shocking statement.
However,
Nothing here or anywhere else in Scripture indicates Mary thought of herself as “immaculate” (free from the taint of original sin).
Quite the opposite is true; she employed language typical of someone whose only hope for salvation is divine grace.
Nothing in this passage lends support to the notion that Mary herself ought to be an object of adoration.
The Word for- is causal.
What is the cause of Mary’s rejoicing?
For He God has “looked” “had regard for” “been mindful of”
