There is no definitive answer as to how old Mary was when she was pregnant. Many estimates have her at a younger age than women are married these days, 11 to 17 being the rough estimate. Early writings like the Protoevangelium of James present her as a younger woman who had undertaken a vow of celibacy and who was marrying Joseph, an older widower, who would provide for her. |
