  • Luke 1:46b-55-- My spirit rejoices in God my Savior. (Lk. 1:47)

  • Matthew 11:2-11 --John the Baptist expects the Messiah to bring God's judgment upon the earth (Mt. 3:11-12). From a prison cell, he wonders whether Jesus is the one who will do this. Jesus' response indicates that God's reign is indeed being fulfilled already through healing and restoration.
