The cousin of the Virgin Mary is Elizabeth, and her baby who was presanctified is John the Baptist. John was given this special blessing in the womb and dedicated to a life of preparing the way for Jesus.
Zechariah
Yes. Only Jesus was conceived by divine intervention.Additional scriptural references:It can be assumed that she did. She and Zechariah, though well along in years, were married, and this was not a 'virgin' birth, like it was in the case of Mary. In Mary's case she was unmarried, and was told that it would be 'God's spirit that would overshadow her...and the one she gave birth to would be God's son".(Luke 1:27,34 & 35)In Elizabeth's case, Zechariah was told : "your wife Elizabeth will become mother to a son to you, and you are to call his name John"(Luke 1:5-13) And the Bible calls Zechariah, John's father (Luke 1:67)
Zechariah .
Elizabeth and Zechariah (her husband) both lived upright in the eyes of God. They were both older and Elizabeth was barren. An angel of God foretold of their son's birth. Their son was John the Baptist. Since God sent an angel to tell them of their son's birth and they lived upright in God's eyes. Her only choice was to obey God.
The birth is similar to that of Sarah and Abraham , here Elizabeth is old and barren, and the angel Gabriel. tells the father Zechariah that they would have a son. and you will name it John.
Luke 1:5-22 tells of how the angle Gabriel was sent to Zechariah, a priest. Gabriel prophesied about the birth of his son, whom he would name John. Zechariah did not believe him, and became mute. Verses 57-66 tells that the son is born, and Elizabeth (the mother) wants to name him John. The neighbors and relatives want to name him Zechariah. They ask Zechariah what he wants the child's name to be. When he writes on a tablet "his name is John", then "Immediately his mouth was opened and his tongue was loosed, and he began to speak, praising God" (verse 64).
