St. just Elisaveta was mother of the Saint Prophet, the Forerunner and the Lord's Baptist Ioann. She was a wife of the Saint prophet Zachariah and Saint Anna's sister, mother Blessed Virgin Mary. Just spouses, "arriving on all Lord's precepts it is blameless", suffered neplodiy that was considered during Old Testament times as great punishment Bozhiim. Once during service in the temple Saint Zachariah received a message from the Angel that his aged wife will give birth to it to the son who "will be great before the Lord" and "predjidt before It in the spirit of and force Eli". When at just Elisaveta the son was born, she on suggestion of the Holy Spirit declared that she will name the baby Ioann.
During beating of babies by the impious tsar Herod, Elisavet together with Ioann took refuge in mountains where the rock wonderfully covered them from the imperial soldiers pursuing it. Her spouse Zachariah refused to answer where he they, and was killed directly in the temple. Elizabeth the Righteous died in 40 days after the spouse. The Saint Prophet, the Forerunner and the Lord's Baptist Ioann the Lord, about his day stored the phenomena to Israel.
Memory of the Saint prophet Zachariah and just Elisaveta's Saint is made on September 18/5. Pray to this Saints for a recovery from sterility.
