Luke 1:5

³  It seemed good to me also, having had perfect understanding of all things from the very first, to write unto thee in order, most excellent Theophilus,

⁴  That thou mightest know the certainty of those things, wherein thou hast been instructed.

⁵  THERE was in the days of Herod, the king of Judaea, a certain priest named Zacharias, of the course of Abia: and his wife was of the daughters of Aaron, and her name was Elisabeth.

⁶  And they were both righteous before God, walking in all the commandments and ordinances of the Lord blameless.

⁷  And they had no child, because that Elisabeth was barren, and they both were now well stricken in years.
