That prophecy that Zechariah pronounces over his baby in his arms is sooo powerful… the details of God's character and why He chose to do it this way… truly awesome!

@@rachaelmorgan4025 it seems unlikely that Liz would have been in her 70s or 80s. She'd have to be able to get though the birth and live long enough, Zechariah, too, to raise John for the early years, at least.

When John mentions going to the wedding banquet, I reacted like Simon way back at the end of season one when the official start of Jesus’ ministry started…”Yes!”

I really enjoyed your reaction to The Chosen S4 Ep 1.! I was deeply moved when John was saying "Thank you" to the Lord for his vision just like Steven. God Bless you Both!

I cried both because John was being killed and also because it was also a step closer to Jesus’ death 💔.

You both have tender hearts towards God and it's beautiful to see.

I love the connection of the actress playing Elizabeth to those of miraculous arrival to this mortality

Josephus' account of what happens next is interesting. While dancing on the ice when in exile, Heroditus fell through and died. Also in exile, Salome fell through the ice as she was crossing a river and was caught up to her neck and wriggling trying to free herself, looking like a sort of "death dance."

You two are the best! That is all. Carry-on.

This Chosen is soooo eventhough I was educated by jesuists, never saw it so clearly.

I live in the South in Arkansas and i always hear Uncle Daddy jokes…. But with Salome it weirdly applies.

Enjoyed this video immensely❤

So enjoyed your reactions and commentary on this stellar episode.

Lovely!

44:10 Reminds me of Simeon praying and prophesying over Y'shua while holding Him in his arms. Maybe if a person watching this didn't know that it's Zacharias and the infant John the Baptist, they might think it's Simeon.

So goood!

I thought they made Elizabeth and Zechariah appear older than they would have been since priests only ministered until they were 50 years old. They looked like they were in their 80s. But it was portrayed in such an amazing way, loved it.

Love the tiny coffee cup!

Every time he says you’ll even get a free hat makes me laugh

Those of us who say Divine Office say Zechariah's prayer every morning as a part of it. In the evening Mary's magnificat is said in each evening prayer. This is what she said to Elizabeth when she arrived. I wish it had been included in the episode.

He even brought up weddings in the book of John. John the Baptist knew

I noticed that, too, in the show- how Herod ordered the beheading, but Roman soldiers are carrying out the execution and manning the prison

The word Angel is “derive from Late Latin angelus, which in turn was borrowed from Late Greek ἄγγελος angelos (literally "messenger").” So The Chosen rightly calls them Messengers.

Matthew does the traditional genealogy (this guy is son of that guy) while Luke actually goes backwards starting with Jesus earthly father Joseph and goes all the way back to Adam who Is created by God. Proving Jesus is indeed the son of God

You guys are great and I loved your video, but can you simply play the entire episode.

Our understanding is that only The Chosen can show the full episodes. We can't do the full episode for a reaction video. That's why we do the clips!

Laundry scene: a preaching for hardened hearts. Z was teaching Judas how to take away the stubborn bits of stain on clothing. Malachi 3:2 But who can endure the day of his coming? Who can stand when he appears? For he will be like a refiner’s fire or a launderer’s soap. The LORD has required His bride to keep their robes "radiant... without stain or wrinkle or any other blemish" (Ephesians 5) Cleaning those stains requires a soaking in detergent, a scrubbing, a beating till all is clean. We get such cleaning through trials. Judas did not allow the cleaning process that God was requiring. The stubborn bits of his old life remained (because of hardened heart, a refusal to die to self including old way of thinking, pride and leaning on own understanding) so it led him to the subsequent actions leading to Jesus death

Anybody else have ideas about possibilities?

You guys didn't dissect Ramah's plan for marrying Thomas. Was that historically accurate in Hebrew culture?

At 10:12 what were ya'll saying that she said? The transcript nor closed caption could get it either.

Zacharia was not only dumb, he was deaf as well. I missed that for so many years. The Bible says, "silent". And when the baby was to be named they had to make signs to Zachariah about the name. If he was not deaf, why didn't they just talk to him and ask?

The word Angel in Greek translates as "messenger"

PLEASE tell us what you think of S4 E3!!! WAITING "PATIENTLY" about what you think about adding this much to "scripture"? Does it serve Christ?

There are a lot of factors that contribute to the Jewish leadership not recognizing Yeshua as Messiah. Many Jewish people were expecting a political leader that would overthrow Rome. Some of the religious leaders had also lost the heart behind following the Torah and had prioritized making sure they appeared to be doing the right things instead of making sure their hearts were connected to GOD. Yeshua's criticism of the Pharisees is almost always about their motivation and heart posture behind what their actions and not the actions themselves. GOD has always desired to be in relationship with His people and many of the religious leaders were missing that relational emphasis.

Elizabeth is called Mary's relative in the Bible. I don't think it specifies how they're related, but with the age difference, aunt and uncle could be right. Since Elizabeth and Zacharias hadn't had any children, they wouldn't be her grandparents.

When our "BC/AD" dating system was invented, there was some dispute about what year 0 should be. Most scholars are certain that the calendar is off by a few years, so Jesus was actually born between 6-4 BC (or BCE). The main reason for this is Herod the Great died I believe in 4 BC, so Jesus must have been born before Herod's death.

It's funny how the disciples are recognizing how well John The Baptizer fulfilled his purpose afyer his death. In the same way, there were so many things that Jesus said and did that His disciples didn't realize until after He was crucified resurrected and ascended.

The Bible says older relative. I thought aunt & uncle would be closer than cousin, but I don’t know. I don’t think anyone, on this side of Heaven, can be sure either way.

The hebrew work מלאכים translated angel is really messenger

Did Mary call Zachariah "Uncle" I thought Elizabeth was Mary's cousin. Wouldn't that make Zachariah Mary's cousin?

Zech was murdered at the temple when he would not disclose Johns whereabouts, they had taken him to the forest to be raised by ??? Essenes?? Don't know anything about Eliz demise.

Are you aware that in Mathew 23:35 when Yeshua is saying the Pharisees have the blood of "Righteous Abel to Zacharias son of Barachias" the Zacharias he's talking about is John's Father, he was killed by Herod the Great because he wouldn't give the location of his son, because Herod thought John was the Messiah, as his was the only birth in the area that had a lot of notoriety associated with it, this was at the time of the murder of the innocents.

Our Bible study on Zachariah: Based on KJV, Zachariah became mute and dumb. I still need confirmation whether he was still in his senses after his encounter with the angel in the temple. There's this medical condition called Broca's aphasia wherein a person is able to receive questions and process them in his brain but unable to speak audible words just sound that doesn't make sense because the muscles of his tounge are not able to to coordinate with his brain on properly pronouncing the words he wants to speak out. To the receiver he does not make any sense. This condition can go side by side with Wernicke's aphasia wherein he receives a questions differently and answers with unrelated sentences (audible words but doesn't answer question). He could have used the tablet to write all in his mind but KJV said he was made dumb so that I have an inkling to the idea he does not know all that was happening around him let alone the pregnancy of Elizabeth. As to him being dumb, the LORD reminded me of King Nebuchadnezzar and how the LORD took away his sensibility that he was found running naked in the forest grazing on grass for how many years until the LORD lifted the curse on him and he became normal again but this time humbled by the Almighty living God. In the Bible study, it was impressed in my spirit that the LORD seemed to have done this to Zachariah. So that the being mute and being dumb was only lifted at the moment he was asked the child's name on the 8th day of circumcision. The prophecy recited by Zachariah was the Holy Spirit prophesying right there and then about the child.

The Catholic Church got it right. The Magisterium is inspired by the Holy Spirit. This is why I'm Catholic. The One Holy Catholic and Apostolic Church is founded by Christ Himself. Elizabeth and Angel Gabriel gave us the Hail Mary prayer. This is precisely why we pray to Mary. She points us to Jesus. And her Divine Son listens to her. She can intercede for us as she did during the wedding in Cana. The Church Fathers faught during the ecumenical councils and rightly identified Mother Mary as the "Theotokos". Do you relize how St. John the Baptist jumps in the womb when he hears Mary's voice? He is doing his version of king David's dance in front of the Ark of the Covenant. Mary is the Theotokos, the Ark of the New and Eternal Covenant. All Glory to God.
