The Annunciation is when the angel Gabriel appeared to Mary and told her that God wanted her to be the mother of Jesus, God's son. Mary said yes, I am the hand maiden of the Lord God. Mary was chosen to be the mother of Jesus, because she was made free of original sin sense she consieved in her mothers womb, because God would not want his Son Jesus to be in a dirty womb.

What's that 12 in the section The Annunciation in the Bible at the end of verse 34? --Exteray^T.C 01:05, 3 November 2006 (UTC)

Why do paintings of the annunciation show Mary at a desk?

[edit] Add holiday infobox?

It looks like this is the page for the Christian holiday, as well as for the event it commemorates. (i.e. Feast of the Annunciation redirects here.)

Should the page have a holiday infobox, like Christmas and Easter do? It's a fairly important holiday in more traditional Christian denominations--not up there with Christmas and Easter, but up there with, say, Transfiguration.

If I don't hear any objections, I'll make it myself. If we ever split the holiday into its own page, we can move the infobox there. -- Narsil (talk) 08:30, 28 January 2008 (UTC)
