While Mary was with Elizabeth for three months, John leaped in Elizabeth’s womb (Luke 1:41). It was during this time where Mary supposedly betrayed Joseph while betrothed. As Matthew one unfolds, the angel confirms Mary’s innocence to Joseph. While Mary was innocent, the same John who leaped in the presence of his God would grow up to challenge the religious leader of the day of betraying his own brother by taking his wife (Matthew 14:3). One was innocent, the other guilty.
