Mary Mother of Jesus

In the movie that we saw during class was about Mary, Mother of Jesus. The following essay will answer the question of Mary's understanding of her role and her understanding of who Jesus was and who he was going to be.Mary, at times in this movie was extremely confused about things that were happening to her. For example, the first time that God talked to her she was confused; she didn't know what was going on. Mary had no clue whether to ignore the voice or believe it.

Mary and everyone else immediately knew that he was truly the Son of God. So, Mary had to interpret that the Apostles were to spread the teachings of Jesus to all. Also, when Jesus was in the temple and Joseph got made at him for not telling anyone where he went; Jesus said "Where else would I be except for my father's house." The 2 other people their had no idea what that meant, except for Mary. Mary knew that Jesus was the Son of God who was trying to teach to the others that God thinks of everyone as his son or daughter.In conclusion, Mary understood her role as well...
