MARIOLOGY
​Mariology is the branch of theology that studies the life and prerogatives of the Blessed Virgin, and her place in the economy of salvation and sanctification. (Etym. Greek Mariā, Mary + logia, science, knowledge.)
​-Fr. John Hardon's Modern Catholic Dictionary
[Mariology] is the body of belief, doctrine, and opinion concerning the Virgin Mary, the study of the person and nature of the Virgin Mary, esp. in reference to her [collaborative] role in the incarnation of God in Christ [and her moral participation in the divine plan of salvation].
- Collins American Dictionary
Mariology is the theological study of Mary, the mother of Jesus. Mariology seeks to relate doctrine or dogma about Mary to other doctrines of the faith, such as those concerning Jesus and notions about redemption, intercession and grace.  -Wikipedia

I will greatly rejoice in the Lord,
and my soul shall be joyful in my God:
for he hath clothed me with the garments of salvation:
and with the robe of justice he hath covered me,
as a bridegroom decked with a crown,
and as a bride adorned with her jewels.
Isaiah 61, 10


At that time, I will bring you home,
at the time when I will gather you together;
yea, I will make you renowned and praised
among all the peoples of the earth,
when I restore your fortunes
before your eyes, says the Lord.
Zephaniah 3, 20

I will perpetuate your memory through all generations;
therefore the nations will praise you for ever and ever.
Psalm 45, 17


When the Lord restored the fortunes of Zion,
then we thought we were dreaming.
Our mouths were filled with laughter;
our tongues sang for joy.
Then it was said among the nations,
“The Lord has done great things for them.”
The Lord has done great things for us;
Oh, how happy we were.
Psalm 126, 1-3


And Mary said:
My soul does magnify the Lord.
And my spirit rejoices in God my Saviour.
For he has regarded the lowliness of his handmaid;
behold from henceforth all generations shall call me blessed.
Because he that is mighty,
has done great things to me;
and holy is his name.
Luke 1, 46-49
