▸ ± Lu 1:26 And in the sixth month the angel Gabriel was sent from God unto a city of Galilee, named Nazareth,
Just as Gabriel's first announcement to Zacarias corresponded to the first vision he gave Daniel, so his second announcement corresponds to this one. Daniel names Gabriel as the same one from the previous vision. Gabriel tells Mary there was a first announcement to Elizabeth.
If we miss the connection to Daniel, we may presume that when Jesus 'returns again' he will conquer his enemies with violence. But Jesus is the Prince of Peace. Jesus conquers his enemies by making them his friends. [1]
Sixth - The sixth day of creation is the day that man was made. Jesus is the firstborn of creation. The Word is made to be man.
