“This refers to God fulfilling his promises, not the Messiah. “

Yes. God’s promises to MARY.

“Blessed is she (Mary) who has believed that the Lord would fulfill his promises to her (Mary)!”

This does not mean that earlier Elizabeth meant God. She meant Messiah. Jew’s did not believe Messiah would be God. Nor do they today.

A good point, Would a devout Jewish woman refer to the Messiah as the One True God? I don’t think so. That would likely merit the death penalty.

Then she wouldn’t have used the same exact word. Sorry. You just refuse to use logic here.
