Luke chapter 1 verse 36.
If the mothers Elizabeth and Mary were cousins, what relationship were their sons?
I've always gotten very confused about such questions,!

It works fine here, so it must have been something in the content of that particular post. I think there were numbers evolved, or something like that, lol.

From Luke Chapter 1, verse 56 I see that Mary stayed 3 months with Elizabeth. Which means very likely she stayed for the birth of John the Baptist.
I never before realised such details.

They met at a potluck at First Baptist Church of Nazareth, and made a covenant to be besties forever by sharing the last piece off fish.
