Mary became Queen at the moment she gave her fiat. At that momen, when Jesus the king was concieved inside of her, Mary became the Mother of the King, and the mother of the King was always the queen.
When we look at all the Kings of the Old Testament - those who prefigure Christ the King of kings - we find that they appointed their mother as queen.
Then Bathsheba went to King Solomon to speak to him for Adonijah, and the king stood up to meet her and paid her homage. Then he sat down upon his throne, and a throne was provided for the king’s mother, who sat at his right. (1 Kings 2:19)
Bathsheba was King David’s wife but was the mother of King Solomon. No one in the kingdom was higher than the king, yet Solomon pays homage to his mother and seats her in a throne on his right. Nobody sits on a throne - nobody - unless they are a king or a queen. This is because Bathsheba is not only Solomon’s mother but she is also Solomon’s queen.
Mother’s were appointed as queen instead of wives because of the way in which wives were often obtained. Wives were often exchanged as part of a military alliance. Each king would give a daughter or a niece to the king with which he was making a military alliance. Doing so ensured that a blood relative was in the inner court of your ally, to report back what was happening. But no king in his right mind would appoint a blood relative of a potential military rival to the second highest position in the kingdom. The risk was too great, and so the king therefor, appointed the only person he could trust to be his queen, and that was his mother.
Anyone who knows a Jewish mother knows exactly what I mean when I say that they are inseperable from thier sons. And so the mother of the king was appointed queen.
The Hebrew word for queen-mother or literally “Grand lady” is Gebirah. We see references to the Gebirah elswhere in the Old Testament.
Jehu met the kinsmen of Ahazi’ah king of Judah, and he said, “Who are you?” And they answered, "We are the kinsmen of Ahazi’ah, and we came down to visit the royal princes and the sons of the queen mother."
(2 Kings 10:13)
This was after King Jeconiah and the queen mother, the court officials, the princes of Judah and Jerusalem, the artisans and smiths had left Jerusalem. (Jerimiah 29:2)
In fact, the various kings throught he centuries are listed in 1 Kings, 2 Kings, 1 Chronicals and 2 Chronicals. With the name and length of reign of each king, the name of the mother of the king is also given.
In the eighteenth year of King Jeroboam, son of Nebat, Abijam became king of Judah; he reigned three years in Jerusalem. His mother’s name was Maacah, daughter of Abishalom. (1 Kings 15:1-2)
In the eighteenth year of King Jeroboam, Abijah became king of Judah; he reigned three years in Jerusalem. His mother was named Micaiah, daughter of Uriel of Gibeah. (2 Chronicals 13:1-2)
Uzziah was sixteen years old when he became king, and he reigned fifty-two years in Jerusalem. His mother’s name was Jecoliah, from Jerusalem. (2 Chronicals 26:3)
There are 27 verses exactly like these. God is trying to tell us something here, and he is telling us that the mother of the king is was a queen.
*A great sign appeared in the sky, a woman clothed with the sun, with the moon under her feet, and on her head a crown of twelve stars. (Revelation 12:1) *
We can argue who the woman in Revelation 12 is but the fact that she wears a crown is clear. Nobody wears a crown except a king or a queen - nobody - only kings and queens wear crowns. The woman is clearly a queen. The woman is described as giving birth to a male child who rules the nations, and this description of a son who rules nations and his mother wearing a crown is consistent with the kings and their Gebirah revealed to us in the Old Testament. The woman and her son flee to the desert for three and one half years, the same ammount of time Joseph spent in Egypt with Jesus and Mary. This and the fact that the woman’s son in Revelation 12 is “Caught up to God and his throne” leads most Christians to believe that the child is Jesus.
The woman is the Church. But we also can’t ignore the plain meaning of the text that the woman is mother of a king. The woman is Mary, and Mary is Queen.
All the kings and queens of the Old Testament point to it, revelation confirms it, and the interchange between Jesus and Mary at the wedding at Cana reveals it. The conversation between Jesus and Mary and the servants at the wedding at Cana is a conversation between a king, his queen, and their subjects.
The coronation occured when Mary gave her fiat. When Jesus the king was concieved in her womb, at that instant, Mary became the Mother of the King. At that instant Mary became the Mother of God. At that instant, Mary became a queen.
