● Luke 1:26-27 . . In the sixth month, the angel Gabriel was sent from God unto a city of Galilee, named Nazareth, to a maiden espoused to a man whose name was Joseph, of the house of David; and the maiden's name was Mary.
The sixth month wasn't a date on the Jews' calendar. It was relative to the second trimester of Mary's cousin Elizabeth. (Luke 1:24, Luke 1:36)
Nazareth is roughly 64 miles north of Jerusalem as the crow flies, and 20 miles inland from Haifa.
Joseph's biological connection to David is extremely important in matters related to theocratic royalty because the right to take his throne passes down thru men.
Mary's name is equivalent to Miriam in the Old Testament: she was Moses' sister.
NOTE: Mary and Elizabeth were biologically related to Rachel's sister Leah by her two sons Levi and Judah. Elizabeth's name is equivalent to Elisheba in the Old Testament; she was Aaron's wife. All four of the Jews named in this post were biologically related to Jacob, Isaac, and Abraham.
