By name, Mary is mentioned twelve times.
No, the Gospel of Luke is not written from Mary's perspective. We can determine that Luke likely interviewed Mary when he was working on his book, because there are things the Luke includes in his Gospel that none of the other Gospel writers include. There are things that only Mary would have known and so the fact they are in Gospel of Luke, he had to have talked to Mary to learn them.
The Magnificat.AnswerThis song, found in Luke 1:47-55, is called the Magnificat. It was based on Hannah's prayer in 1 Samuel 2, as a parallel reading of the two will show. Some manuscripts of the New Testament indicate that it was Elizabeth who sang the Magnificat in Luke 1.47-55, not Mary.
The Gospels of Matthew and Mark say that Mary Magdalene was among the women who watched form afar off; none of the acquaintances of Jesus was actually at the crucifixion. Luke's Gospel is similar, although it only says that the women watched from afar off. John's Gospel says that Mary the mother of Jesus was actually at the crucifixion, but does not mention Mary Magdalene or any other women.
A:There is a non-canonical Gospel of Mary, attributed to Mary Magdalene. However, care should be taken in reading this attribution. From earliest times, it was the practice to attribute gospels to the disciples and acquaintances of Jesus, lending them authority. We actually know none of the gospel authors but it is unlikely that a woman wrote any gospel story.
The Bible does not mention a Joachim.The only place Joachim is mentioned as the father of Mary is in the Infancy Gospel of James. Although the Infancy Gospel of James is non-canonical, this became Christian tradition. Since the genealogies of Jesus in Matthew and Luke name two different fathers for Joseph, theologians since the eighth century have argued that the genealogy in Luke is actually the family tree of Mary and that Heli is her father, so the Christian Church is now more ambiguous about the existence of Saint Joachim. Joachim continues to be the preference of Catholics as the father of Mary, but this is not a universal assumption even among Catholics.
Yes, Elizabeth is mentioned in the Bible in the Gospel of Luke. She is the mother of John the Baptist and the cousin of Mary, the mother of Jesus.

Yes the lady mentioned in the gospel of Luke chaper 7 verse 36 onwards was indeed Mary Magdalene.. But she later changed her ways.
The Gospel of Luke is the gospel that speaks of the angel Gabriel's visit to Mary. In Matthew's Gospel, we are told through the angel telling Joseph that Mary conceived through the power of the Holy Ghost, what took place, but are not given the full story of Mary's encounter and message from the angel as we are given in Luke's Gospel.
St. Luke's Gospel speaks the most about Our Lady.

Luke 1:26-38 tells of the visit of the angel Gabriel to Mary, and his announcement that she was "blessed among women," had found "favor with God," and had been chosen to bring the "Son of the Highest" into the world. (Luke is the only gospel to record this encounter.) A "coronation" suggests that someone has been given a crown and a rulership. Mary was highly honored, but she was not coronated.
According to the gospel of Luke, Mary was told about her pregnancy by an angel.
A:In Luke 10:38, Mary and Martha were poor inhabitants of an unnamed "certain village." Lazarus was not a real person, but his death and hypothetical resurrection are mentioned in a parable (Luke 16:20-31). John chapter 11, apparently inspired by Luke's Gospel, portrays Mary, Martha and Lazarus as rich friends of Jesus, and they lived in Bethany.
The first time she is mentioned in the Bible is in Luke 8:3.
The story of Martha, Mary and Lazarus is to be found in John's Gospel only. It is never mentioned in any of the other gospels, although John says that Jesus raised Lazarus from the dead after several days, in possibly his greatest miracle. However, Martha, Mary and Lazarus are mentioned in Luke's Gospel.in two stories that are different yet surprisingly parallel to the one story in John's Gospel.In Luke's Gospel, Martha and Mary are sisters and friends of Jesus, but do not have a brother called Lazarus. Jesus tells a parable of Lazarus dying and going down to hell where he meets a rich man being punished for his sins. The rich man asks for Lazarus to be raised from the dead so that he can warn his friends of the fate that awaits them. The close parallels are a reminder that John's Gospel is actually based on Luke's Gospel, so that John's one story of Martha, Mary and Lazarus was inspired by Luke's two different stories.Martha, Mary and Lazarus were not real people and had no father.
In Luke's Gospel, Mary and Joseph lived in Nazareth. The Gospel does not say so, but it is always assumed that they had a house in Nazareth. In Matthew's Gospel, Mary and Joseph appear to have lived in Bethlehem. The house in which the magi found Jesus was no doubt their home.
