I read the Magnificat this morning, and some commentaries on it. I like Charles Ryrie's comment the best: “There are 15 discernible quotations from the OT in this poem, showing how much the OT was known and loved in the home in which Jesus was reared.”
You could also say the same about the home in which Mary was raised, too.
The New Testament is built on the Old Testament. You can tell by how often it's quoted.
