King James Bible
"Now Elisabeth’s full time came that she should be delivered; and she brought forth a son."
The phrase marks the completion of Elisabeth's pregnancy, emphasizing God's perfect timing in fulfilling His promise. After decades of barrenness and months of seclusion, the miraculous pregnancy announced by Gabriel reaches its appointed conclusion. The birth of a male child fulfills the angel's specific prophecy to Zacharias in the temple. In Jewish culture, a son represented continuation of the family line and God's blessing, making this birth especially significant for the elderly, previously childless couple.
