The Annunciation of Jesus's birth is in Luke 1:26-38 of the Bible, where the Archangel Gabriel visits the Virgin Mary in Nazareth to announce she will conceive and bear a son, Jesus, by the power of the Holy Spirit, who will be called the Son of God and rule an eternal kingdom. Mary's response, "Behold the maidservant of the Lord; let it be to me according to your word," signifies her faith and acceptance of God's plan.
