The Virgin Birth of the Virgin Mary 

    The Virgin Mary served God in the Temple of Jerusalem for 11 years. In the twelfth year, she left the service 

of God in the Temple of Jerusalem to become a living Temple for the Son of God. She, who was one of many 

temple virgins, was in truth the perfect Virgin of virgins and the living Temple for the Son of God. The Temple 

of Jerusalem was a symbol and foreshadowing of the Messiah. When the Virgin Mary's time of service within 

the Temple had ended, the human life of the Messiah began within her womb. Within the Virgin of the 

Temple, God created the Cornerstone of the New Temple, the Humanity of the Eternal Son of God. The 

Virgin Mary is Virgin of the Temple, and that Temple is Christ Jesus, her Savior. The Virgin Mary conceived 

and gave birth to Jesus Christ, who is the fulfillment of all that is symbolized by the Temple of Jerusalem. 

 And I saw no temple in the city, for its temple is the Lord God the Almighty and the Lamb.  (Rev 21:22).
