Y bendito es el fruto de tu vientre, Jesus. and ‘benedicta tu in mulieribus et benedictus fructus ventris tui’ occurred in almost every part of the Cursus, and though we cannot be sure that these clauses were at first joined together so as to make one prayer, there is conclusive evidence that this had come to pass only a very little later.Īnd blessed is the fruit of your womb, Jesus. Two Anglo-Saxon manuscripts at the British Museum, one of which may be as old as the year 1030, show that the words ‘Ave Maria’ etc. All the evidence suggests that it took its rise from certain versicles and responsories occurring in the Little Office or Cursus of the Blessed Virgin which just at that time was coming into favor among the monastic orders.
In point of fact, there is little or no trace of the Hail Mary as an accepted devotional formula before about 1050. Though the two verses are from the same book in the Bible, these lines were not put together until about the 11th century. To many Catholics, this event is also called the Visitation.
The second passage can be found in Luke 1:42, and it says, “Blessed are you among women, and blessed is the fruit of your womb!” These words were said by Elizabeth when she visited Mary and greeted her. The first one, found in Luke 1:28, says, “Hail, full of grace, the Lord is with you!” This was mentioned by the angel Gabriel when she greeted Mary this event is also known as the Annunciation. The Hail Mary prayer stems from two passages in the gospel of Luke.
