Maybe I'm a little thick headed here...but just where does what you posted have to do with the passages you listed...

1. Mary is revealed to be "full of grace" in Luke 1:28.

2. Mary is revealed to be the fulfillment of the prophetic "Daughter of Zion" of Zech. 2:10; Zeph. 3:14-16; Isaiah 12:1-6, etc.

3. Mary is revealed to be "the beginning of the new creation" in fufillment of the prophecy of Jer. 31:22.

4. Mary is revealed to possess a "blessed state" parallel with Christ's in Luke 1:42.

5. Mary is not just called "blessed" among women, but "more blessed than all women" (including Eve) in Luke 1:42.

6. Mary is revealed to be the spotless "Ark of the Covenant" in Luke 1.

7. Mary is revealed to be the "New Eve" in Luke 1:37-38; John 2:4; 19:26-27; Rev. 12, and elsewhere.

8. Mary is revealed to be free from the pangs of labor in fulfillment of Isaiah 66:7-8.

I might add the I can cite lots of RC teaching that are indisputable no true...simply because they have been clarified, adjusted, revised...

By all means, please cite them.

5. Mary is not just called "blessed" among women, but "more blessed than all women" (including Eve) in Luke 1:42.

Wrong. Luke 1:42 says AMONG women, not ABOVE women.

Luke 1:42 And she cried out with a loud voice, and said: Blessed art thou among women, and blessed is the fruit of thy womb.

2, 3, and 8 are Scriptures wrested from the OT to try to make them fit Mary.

6. Mary is revealed to be the spotless "Ark of the Covenant" in Luke 1.

Verse number?

7. Mary is revealed to be the "New Eve" in Luke 1:37-38; John 2:4; 19:26-27; Rev. 12, and elsewhere.

Nowhere is that analogy made.

Luke 1:37-38 For nothing will be impossible with God.” And Mary said, “Behold, I am the servant of the Lord; let it be to me according to your word.” And the angel departed from her. (not even close)

John 2:4 And Jesus said to her, “Woman, what does this have to do with me? My hour has not yet come.”(I guess John forgot to include the reference to Eve in this passage.)

John 19:26-27 When Jesus saw his mother and the disciple whom he loved standing nearby, he said to his mother, “Woman, behold, your son!” Then he said to the disciple, “Behold, your mother!” And from that hour the disciple took her to his own home.(likewise here he forgot to mention Eve.)

Rev. 12 A woman with no name given. It's wishful thinking for it to be Mary or Eve.

and elsewhere

Where?
