Luke 1:21-25

21Meanwhile, the people were waiting for Zechariah to come out of the sanctuary, wondering why he was taking so long.

22When he finally did come out, he couldn’t speak to them. Then they realized from his gestures and his silence that he must have seen a vision in the sanctuary.

23When Zechariah’s week of service in the Temple was over, he returned home.

24Soon afterward his wife, Elizabeth, became pregnant and went into seclusion for five months.

25“How kind the Lord is!” she exclaimed. “He has taken away my disgrace of having no children.”
