The angel replied This phrase introduces the response of the angel Gabriel to Mary, indicating a divine message. The Greek word for "angel" is "ἄγγελος" (angelos), meaning "messenger." In the biblical context, angels are often seen as God's messengers, bringing important revelations or instructions. Gabriel's role here is significant, as he is delivering a message that will change the course of history. “The Holy Spirit will come upon you and the power of the Most High will overshadow you So the Holy One to be born will be called the Son of God The power of the Highest shall overshadow thee.--The divine name is used in obvious harmony with "the Son of the Highest" in Luke 1:32. Therefore also . . . shall be called the Son of God.--The words appear to rest the title, "Son of God," rather on the supernatural birth than on the eternal pre-existence of the Son as the Word that was "in the beginning with God and was God" (John 1:1), and we may accept the fact that the message of the angel was so far a partial, not a complete, revelation of the mystery of the Incarnation. It gave a sufficient reason for the name which should be given to the Son of Mary, and more was not then required. . . . Verse 35. - The Holy Ghost shall come upon thee, and the power of the Highest shall overshadow thee. Again the angel makes use of the term "Highest" when alluding to the eternal Father.

"The Word was conceived in the womb of a woman, not after the manner of men, but by the singular, powerful, invisible, immediate operation of the Holy Ghost, whereby a virgin was, beyond the law of nature, enabled to conceive, and that which was conceived in her was originally and cmnpletcly sanctified" (art. 3, Bishop Pearson on the Creed).Parallel Commentaries ...
