Mary mother of Jesus


Mother of Jesus is either mentioned by name or it is implied 23 times in the New Testament.                           

Luke 1:28; 1:30; 1:31; 1:34-35; 1:38; 1:42; 1:43-45 1:47; 1:48; 2:19; 2:51; 11:27. Thats fifteen times mentioned in the Gospel of Luke.

In Matthew, I counted 6 times that she is mentioned (Matthew 2:11; 1:18-25).

She is mentioned twice in the Gospel of John (John 2:5; 19:25).

She is mentioned once in the book of Mark (Mark 6:3) and once in the book of Acts (Acts 1:14).

By my count that is 23 times. Some of these verses do not refer to her by name. They will simply say His mother or her but these verses are clearly talking about Mary mother of Jesus.
