Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Commentary

Luke 1:36

_ _ thy cousin — “relative,” but how near the word says not.

_ _ conceived, etc. — This was to Mary an unsought sign, in reward of her faith.

Matthew Henry's Commentary

See commentary on Luke 1:26-38.

John Wesley's Explanatory Notes

Luke 1:36

And behold, thy cousin Elisabeth — Though Elisabeth was of the house of Aaron, and Mary of the house of David, by the fathers side, they might be related by their mothers. For the law only forbad heiresses marrying into another tribe. And so other persons continually intermarried; particularly the families of David and of Levi.

Geneva Bible Translation Notes

Luke 1:36

And, behold, thy (k) cousin Elisabeth, she hath also conceived a son in her old age: and this is the (l) sixth month with her, who was called barren.

(k) Though Elisabeth was of the tribe of Levi, yet it was possible for her to be Mary's cousin: for whereas it was forbidden by the Law for maidens to be married to men of other tribes, there was an exception among the Levites, who could take for themselves wives out of any tribe: for the Levites had no portion allotted to them when the land was divided among the people.

(l) This is now the sixth month from the time when she conceived.
