Psalm 106, Luke 1. 39-56
Is it true that the Magnificat was banned in British India, in Guatemala during the Dirty war in 1976-83 and also by Argentina's Junta? Sister Elizabeth Johnson, 2012:
“The Magnificat is a revolutionary song of salvation whose political, economic, and social dimensions cannot be blunted. People in need in every society hear a blessing in this canticle. The battered woman, the single parent without resources, those without food on the table or without even a table, the homeless family, the young abandoned to their own devices, the old who are discarded: all are encompassed in the hope Mary proclaims.” – Sister Elizabeth Johnson, 2012
