Dedication to Theophilus

1 Inasmuch as many have taken in hand to set in order a narrative of those athings which have been fulfilled among us,  
2 just as those who afrom the beginning were beyewitnesses and ministers of the word cdelivered them to us,  
3 it seemed good to me also, having1 had perfect understanding of all things from the very first, to write to you an orderly account, amost excellent Theophilus,  
4 athat you may know the certainty of those things in which you were instructed.  

John’s Birth Announced to Zacharias

5 There was ain the days of Herod, the king of Judea, a certain priest named Zacharias, bof the division of cAbijah. His dwife was of the daughters of Aaron, and her name was Elizabeth.  
6 And they were both righteous before God, walking in all the commandments and ordinances of the Lord blameless.
7 But they had no child, because Elizabeth was barren, and they were both well advanced in years.
8 So it was, that while he was serving as priest before God in the order of his division,
9 according to the custom of the priesthood,1 his lot fell ato burn incense when he went into the temple of the Lord.  
10 aAnd the whole multitude of the people was praying outside at the hour of incense.  
11 Then an angel of the Lord appeared to him, standing on the right side of athe altar of incense.
