4So that you might have certain knowledge of those things about which you were given teaching.
5In the days of Herod, king of Judaea, there was a certain priest, by name Zacharias, of the order of Abijah; and he had a wife of the family of Aaron, and her name was Elisabeth.
6They were upright in the eyes of God, keeping all the rules and orders of God, and doing no wrong.
7And they were without children, because Elisabeth had never given birth, and they were at that time very old.
8Now it came about that in his turn he was acting as priest before God,
9And as was the way of the priests, he had to go into the Temple to see to the burning of perfumes.
10And all the people were offering prayers outside, at the time of the burning of perfumes.
