The Greek word for "full" is plérés. Kecharitomene does NOT indicate "full". That Greek word for " full" (plérés) is used in the New Testament as having to do with grace but NEVER about Mary. It is used here:

Acts 6:8 Now Stephen, a man full of God's grace and power, performed great wonders and signs among the people.

We have direct Greek words declaring Stephen "full of Grace" but not for Mary. Catholics don't declare Stephen sinless yet he is the only one clearly declared "full of grace".

Then you used the term "Panagia" a Greek word meaning "all holy". Really? Mary is " all holy"?

1 Samuel 2:2 There is none holy as the LORD: for there is none beside thee: neither is there any rock like our God.

And we have no account in the NT of panagia ever being applied to Mary. It is another failed attempt by the roman cult to elevate Mary to something the Bible doesn't accord to her.

The use of the Greek destroys a lot of the claims the roman cultists make about Mary not supported by Scripture.
