The Bible does not give an exact age for the Virgin Mary when she gave birth to Jesus Christ. However, based on historical and cultural context of Jewish customs in 1st-century Palestine, scholars generally estimate that Mary was likely between 13 and 16 years old, with most estimates centering around 14 years old.
In that time and culture, it was common for girls to be betrothed and married shortly after puberty. So while we cannot know her exact age, Mary was very likely a young teenager when she became the mother of Jesus.
