But Elizabeth welcomed Mary with no questions asked. Well, not really. There is no complaint here. Elizabeth says she is honored to have Mary in her home. Relationships take a different turn when we share our homes with each other.
Biblical hospitality is more than getting together with friends.
It is a matter of sharing Christ with others through acts of warmth and kindness. Hospitality is a practical work of Christian faith. But when you give a banquet, invite the poor, the crippled, the lame, the blind, and you will be blessed. Although they cannot repay you, you will be repaid at the resurrection of the righteous. Do not forget to entertain strangers, for by so doing some people have entertained angels without knowing it.
