Elisabeth

There was in the days of Herod, the king of Judea, a certain priest named Zechariah, of the priestly division of Abijah. He had a wife of the daughters of Aaron, and her name was Elisheva.

But they had no child, because Elisheva was barren, and they both were well advanced in years.

But the angel said to him, “Don’t be afraid, Zechariah, because your request has been heard, and your wife, Elisheva, will bear you a son, and you shall call his name Yochanan.

After these days Elisheva, his wife, conceived, and she hid herself five months, saying,

Behold, Elisheva, your relative, also has conceived a son in her old age; and this is the sixth month with her who was called barren.

and entered into the house of Zechariah and greeted Elisheva.

When Elisheva heard Miriam’s greeting, the baby leaped in her womb, and Elisheva was filled with the Holy Spirit.

Now the time that Elisheva should give birth was fulfilled, and she gave birth to a son.
