Episode Synopsis

This episode of Behold Your King reflects on Mary’s visit to Elizabeth and the profound recognition of Jesus’ kingship even before His birth. Drawing together Genesis 49:10 and Luke 1:39–56, the reading highlights how the promised ruler from the line of Judah is acknowledged by Elizabeth and her pre-born son, John the Baptist, who leaps for joy at the presence of the unborn Messiah. Mary’s Magnificat celebrates God’s mighty work in her life and proclaims a kingdom marked not by earthly power but by God’s mercy, justice, and faithfulness to His covenant. As listeners consider the signs of Jesus’ eternal authority and the contrast between His reign and worldly rulers, the episode invites reflection on the joy, humility, and hope that accompany the arrival of the true King. Written by the Ezra Institute, read by Dallas Block with scripture by Dan Niles, and produced by Rock Solid Refuge.
