Berean Standard Bible

“In the sixth month, God sent the angel Gabriel to a town in Galilee called Nazareth,”

Luke 1:26

Save as image

Study note

Luke 1 tells of the announcements that lead to the births of John the Baptist and Jesus. After the angel Gabriel appears to Zechariah in the temple, Luke turns to a very different setting, a small town far from the center of religious life.
