Annunciation Two Ways

LUKE 1:26-56

The Annunciation of the birth of Jesus to Mother Mary is central to the Christian story. A complex passage that uses Hannah’s Song and other Old Testament promises to address geopolitical and religious issues experienced in first-century Palestine, these thirty-one verses of biblical text have become an opportunity for both academic study and pietistic devotion. In this two-week series, we will attempt both—an examination of the text from an historical-critical approach and an encounter of the text through a devotional reading.
