Luke.1.12 And Zechariah was troubled when he saw him, and fear fell upon him. Luke.1.13 But the angel said to him, “Do not be afraid, Zechariah, for your prayer has been heard, and your wife Elizabeth will bear you a son, and you shall call his name John. Luke.1.18 And Zechariah said to the angel, “How shall I know this? For I am an old man, and my wife is advanced in years.” Luke.1.21 And the people were waiting for Zechariah, and they were wondering at his delay in the temple.
