Luke 1:28 reads, "And entering, the angel said to her, Hail, one having received grace! The Lord is with you. You are blessed among women!"

-literal translation of the TEXTUS RECEPTUS Greek in SOURCE: THE INTERLINEAR BIBLE, Jay P. Green, Sr.; Sovereign Grace Publishers, ISBN: 1-878442-81-3).

"And the angel came in unto her, and said, Hail, thou that art highly favoured, the Lord is with thee: blessed art thou among women."

- Luke 1:28 King James Bible version

The term "FULL OF GRACE," is not a Biblical term concerning Mary.

The original Greek NEVER says Mary was "FULL" of grace; rather, it says that Mary received grace from God.

Instead of spending your time trying to spin the term into something the text doesn't say, you'd be better off just admitting the roman denomination teaches this and you must believe it.

Only Douay Rheims and the Aramaic Bible in Plain English render Luke 1:28 as "Full of grace".

However, the Aramaic Bible renders this as, "Peace to you, full of grace, our Lord is with you; you are blessed among women.

DR: Hail, full of grace, the Lord is with thee: blessed art thou among women.
