Zechariah and Elizabeth

⁵ During the time Herod ruled Judea, there was a priest named Zechariah. He belonged to Abijah’s group.^[a] Zechariah’s wife came from the family of Aaron. Her name was Elizabeth. ⁶ Zechariah and Elizabeth truly did what God said was good. They did everything the Lord commanded and told people to do. They were without fault in keeping his law. ⁷ But Zechariah and Elizabeth had no children. Elizabeth could not have a baby; and both of them were very old.
