Luke 1:39

An Understandable Version (2005 edition)

About that time Mary made a hurried trip to a Judean town in the hill country. [Note: This was the same province in which Jerusalem was located].

See the chapter Copy

And Mary said, “Here I am, the Lord’s slave-girl; let it happen to me according to what you say.” Then the angel left her.

[Upon arriving] she entered the home of Zacharias and greeted [his wife] Elizabeth.

Then all those who lived in the area became afraid; and people were talking about all these things throughout the entire hill country of Judea.
