21. And the people waited for Zacharias, and marveled that he lingered so long in the temple.
22. But when he came out, he could not speak to them; and they perceived that he had seen a vision in the temple, for he beckoned to them and remained speechless.
23. So it was, as soon as the days of his service were completed, that he departed to his own house.

29. But when she saw him, she was troubled at his saying, and considered what manner of greeting this was.
