O Come Thou Key Of David, Come
And Open Wide Our Heavenly Home
Make Safe the Way That Leads On High
That We No More Have Cause to Sigh
Jesse Tree Story: ELIZABETH
Jesse Tree Symbol: A DOVE
Scripture: "And it happened that, as Elizabeth heard the greeting of Mary, the infant leaped in her womb, and Elizabeth was filled with the Holy Spirit. And she cried out with a loud voice and said: “Blessed are you among women, and blessed is the fruit of your womb."
Luke 1:41-42
Commentary: Elizabeth was the cousin of Mary. She has conceived a child in old age through a miracle. The child in her womb, John the Baptist, leaps with joy when Mary, pregnant with Jesus, arrives. Filled with the Holy Spirit, Elizabeth cries out, “Most blessed are you among women, and blessed is the fruit of your womb.”
