Robertson's Word Pictures (NT)
Because that (kaqoti). Good Attic word, according to what. Only in Luke and Acts in the N.T. In the papyri.
Well stricken in years (probebhkotev en taiv hmeraiv autwn). Wycliff has it right: "Had gone far in their days." Perfect active participle. See also verse Luke 1:18.
