LUKE 1:48 “Because He hath regarded the humility of His Handmaid; for behold from henceforth ALL GENERATIONS SHALL CALL ME BLESSED.”

Blessed is not sinless it is blessed.. All the Jewish girls wanted to be the mother of Israels savior.. so she was blessed by the honor.. The blesser is sinless not the blessed ... Luk 11:27 And it came to pass, as he spake these things, a certain woman of the company lifted up her voice, and said unto him, Blessed [is] the womb that bare thee, and the paps which thou hast sucked. [Select for Copy; Double click to (de-)select all] Luk 11:28 But he said, Yea rather, blessed [are] they that hear the word of God, and keep it.

And being chosen to bear Jesus and spend the rest of life with him was a blessing. But it has nought to do with sinlessness on her part nor need it.

What do you think that scripture means? What is the significance of it? I know that if I were a woman and I was chosen by God to bear His son, I would certainly consider myself blessed, similar to how a humanist would consider themself blessed if they won the lotto.

It is a true, and the ultimate, blessing, to be chosen by God to be the source of the human side of the Savior. It’s really almost unimaginable, actually.
