And Zacharias said unto the angel, Whereby shall I know this? for I am an old man, and my wife well stricken in years.
Zacarías le dijo al ángel: '¿Cómo puedo estar seguro de esto? Yo soy viejo y mi esposa también está avanzada en edad.'
Zacarías dudó del mensaje del ángel porque él y su esposa eran demasiado ancianos para tener hijos.
📚 Contexto Histórico
In the Gospel of Luke, which records the events surrounding the birth of Jesus, Zacharias was a priest serving in the temple when an angel named Gabriel appeared to him. The angel announced that Zacharias and his wife Elizabeth, who were both advanced in age and had been unable to have children, would soon have a son named John. This moment highlights the cultural context of ancient Jewish society, where barrenness was seen as a significant hardship and God's intervention in such situations was a common theme in biblical stories.
