This book comes as the fourth book of the TPI Dissertation Series. The character of Elizabeth in the gospel of Luke has been largely ignored by the readers and the scholars. Such a neglected character is the subject of this book. By applying the Historical Critical Method and the Feminist approach, the book studies this character of Elizabeth as pictured in Luke 1:39-45 and argues that Elizabeth is a prophetess in all the sense of the word. She is a prophetess of Christ and she is a prophetess of the Church. In short, the book presents Elizabeth as a model to the women believers in India to live as true prophetic disciples of Jesus by way of believing, witnessing and proclaiming the Messiah and the Messianic message.
