Many years after the prophets and great leaders of the Old Testament passed away God selected a young maiden named Mary to be the mother of the Savior. She lived in Judah in a region called Galilee, and a city named Nazareth. Mary was a direct descendant of Adam and Eve, Abraham, and David. God sent the angel Gabriel to her with a message. Gabriel told Mary that she was to conceive a child and was to name him Jesus, and that he was to become a great ruler. Mary was troubled because she was a virgin, and she asked Gabriel how this could come to pass.
And the angel answered and said unto her, “ The Holy Ghost shall come
upon thee, and the power of the Highest shall overshadow thee: therefore also
that holy thing which shall be born of thee shall be called the Son of God.”
St. Luke 1:35
Hence the promise given to Eve that from her seed would come a redeemer is to find it’s fulfillment in Mary.
