Others, such as Thomas Aquinas, have argued that the relationship was on the maternal side; that Mary's father was from Judah, Mary's mother from Levi. [109] Modern scholars like Raymond Brown (1973) and Géza Vermes (2005) suggest that the relationship between Mary and Elizabeth is simply an invention of Luke. [110]

He went to be registered with Mary, to whom he was engaged and who was expecting a child. Most critical biblical scholars have acknowledged that the Gospel of Luke is erroneous.
