From the Letter to the Hebrews: Since all the children share the same blood and flesh, he (Jesus) too shared equally in it, so that by his death he could take away all the power of the devil, who had power over death. (Jesus) set free all those who had been held in slavery all their lives by the fear of death. For it was not the life of the angels that he took to himself; he took to himself descent from (a very human) Abraham. It was essential that he should in this way become completely like his brothers and sisters so that he could be a compassionate and trustworthy high priest of God’s religion, able to atone for human sins.

Responsory

℣. Hail Mary, full of grace, the Beloved God is with you!* You gave birth to the one who made you. .

St Ambrose writes about Luke’s Gospel: You too, my people, are blessed, you who have heard and who believe. Every soul that believes — that soul both conceives and gives birth to the Word of God and recognises God’s works.

Let the soul of Mary be in each one of you, to proclaim the greatness of the Lord. Let the spirit of Mary be in each one of you, to rejoice in God. According to the flesh only one woman can be the mother of Christ but in the world of faith Christ is the fruit of all of us. For every soul can receive the Word of God.

The soul that has been able to reach this state proclaims the greatness of the Lord just as Mary did and rejoices in God its saviour just like her.

This is the Feast Day of Mary being conceived in St Ann’s womb without any stain of sin. Christians know her as the Mother of God. One day we will be like her - becoming sinless - because we find God’s love through Mary.

St Anselm writes: God, then, is the Father of the created world and Mary the mother of the re-created world. God is the Father by whom all things were given life, and Mary the mother through whom all things were given new life. For God begot the Son, through whom all things were made, and Mary gave birth to the Son of God as the Saviour of the world. Without God’s Son, nothing could exist; without Mary’s Son, nothing could be redeemed.

Advent thought shaping our feelings and action: St Bernard of Clairvaux writes concerning Christ’s coming:

For this is what Christ’s coming will do: (as the Word of God says 1 Cor 15) “just as we have been shaped in the earthly image, so will we be shaped in the heavenly image.” - This means: Just as the old Adam (with his fears) was poured into the whole of humanity and took possession of every human person, so in turn will the whole of humanity be taken over by Christ, who created all things, has redeemed all things, and will glorify all things.

[Keep the Word of God hidden in your heart] Let it pe*****te deep into the core of your soul and then flow out again in your feelings and the way you behave; because if you feed your soul well it will grow and rejoice.
