She was born because God had chosen her from all eternity. Today it is not so much about her qualities, or what she did. Just that God brought into this world and that alone is worth celebrating. Like John the Baptist she is on the threshold between the Old Testament and the New. "Mary, the Daughter of Zion and ideal personification of Israel, is the last and most worthy representative of the People of the Old Covenant but at the same time she is "the hope and the dawn of the whole world." With her, the elevated Daughter of Zion, after a long expectation of the promises, the times are fulfilled and a new economy is established" (LG 55).
The triptych of Nativity of the Virgin by Pietro Lorenzetti (1335) in the Cathedral of Siena.
The music is by Handel, Lascia chi's pianga, played on the guitar by Bert Alink.
