Brief Life of Saint Elizabeth:
Saint Righteous Elizabeth was the wife of the priest Zechariah and the mother of John the Baptist. She was of the lineage of Aaron and lived a righteous life. Though she was barren and advanced in age, she miraculously conceived John after the angel Gabriel announced it to Zechariah. She was also a relative of the Virgin Mary and recognized the divine nature of Jesus when Mary visited her. During King Herod’s persecution, she fled with her infant son to protect him.
