The aim of the article is to point out the basic perspective of reading the Sacred Scripture, where individual sacred texts (the first part of the article) can be correctly understood and the four Marian Church dogmas (the second part of the article) can be interpreted more comprehensively. The article specifically follows the teachings of the Second Vatican Council and the thoughts of Joseph Ratzinger / Benedict XVI, who made a very important contribution regarding the aim of this work. In this way, the basic results of the research come to light: the sacred texts have to be interpreted in the light of the unity and harmony of Scripture and proceeding from its center – Jesus Christ. The most appropriate methodological procedure for such an interpretation is the so-called canonical exegesis, which reads an individual Biblical text in the light of the whole of the Old and New Testaments. Sacred tradition, the analogy of faith and typological interpretations play an important role. This also opens the perspective for understanding the concordance of Marian dogmas with God’s revelation. Therefore, the Scriptures reveal the layers of biblical tradition that are the stronghold of Mariology and Marian dogmas, namely the Old Testament theology of the woman and the theology of the people of God. All the essential elements of these realities are embodied in Mary. That is why in Mary Israel, but also the Church exist as a person, which is the fundamental biblical-Mariological thesis of J. Ratzinger.
