In Nazareth, the Archangel Gabriel appeared to Mary, a virgin betrothed to Joseph. He announced she would conceive and bear a son, Jesus, the Son of the Most High, whose kingdom would never end. Mary, troubled, asked how this was possible since she was a virgin. Gabriel explained the Holy Spirit would come upon her, and the power of the Highest would overshadow her. Mary humbly accepted, saying, "Behold, I am the servant of the Lord; let it be to me according to your word.” Her faith and obedience paved the way for salvation.
