TOPIC

Matthia Langone (MATS Regent College, D.Min. VST, iconographer and lecturer) walked us through the context and meaning portrayed in her painting of the occasion of Mary’s visitation with her cousin Elizabeth as recorded in Luke 1:39-45. The more important reality of that scene was the moment of recognition for both women of the mystery of God’s working in their lives, also witnessed by a mute Zechariah. Mary's song of praise (The Magnificat) was prompted by this moment of revelation, not the archangel's earlier annunciation to her, as we might have expected. Christ’s ministry was all about helping us to recognize God, asking us all: “who do you say that I am?” [KH]
