Synopsis

THE saints and pious writers are unanimous in their opinion that the Blessed Virgin Mary was in ancient times announced by various prophecies, and foreshadowed by many symbols. The reason, no doubt, must be sought in Mary’s excellence and dignity. She was not only the purest of creatures, but moreover she was destined to be associated in a singular manner in the great work of our Redemption. When, therefore, the coming of the Messiah is foretold and described, it is but natural that the Mother of the Redeemer should be, if not always as clearly depicted as in Genesis and Isaiah, at least obscurely announced, and represented, or insinuated, by figures and comparisons.
