Answer Details
At the time Angel Gabriel appeared to Mary, Elizabeth was pregnant for six months. In the Bible, Elizabeth was the mother of John the Baptist, and Mary was the mother of Jesus. When Gabriel appeared to Mary to tell her that she would give birth to Jesus, he also told her to visit Elizabeth, who was already six months pregnant with John. This visit was significant because it confirmed for Mary that her own pregnancy was indeed a miracle from God, and it also showed the close relationship between the two families and their respective sons, Jesus and John.
