medieval-religion: Scholarly discussions of medieval religion and culture
What is also interesting - both Elizabeths suffered
from barrenness. Luke's Gospel has always impressed me
with its extraordinary literary qualities, especially
the repetitions of like events. A book on illuminated
mss. has the annunciation to Zachary misidentified as
the annunciation to Mary, so similar in detail are the
two.

p.s. Where did I get the notion that "Elizabeth" also
means "house of bread"?
