Meaning: Elizabeth, mother of John the Baptizer.

Word Origin: Derived from the Hebrew name אֱלִישֶׁבַע (Elisheba)

Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: - H472: אֱלִישֶׁבַע (Elisheba) - The original Hebrew form of the name, found in Exodus 6:23, referring to the wife of Aaron.

Usage: The name Elisabet means "God is my oath" or "God is abundance." In the New Testament, Elisabet is the name of the wife of Zechariah and the mother of John the Baptist. She is noted for her righteousness and faithfulness to God, as well as for being filled with the Holy Spirit.

Cultural and Historical Background: Elizabeth lived during the time of Herod the Great, in the first century BCE. She was a descendant of Aaron, the brother of Moses, which placed her in the priestly line. Her account is significant in the context of Jewish expectations of the Messiah, as her son, John the Baptist, played a crucial role in preparing the way for Jesus Christ. Elizabeth's miraculous pregnancy in her old age echoes the Old Testament account of Sarah, the wife of Abraham, highlighting God's power and faithfulness.
