The Gospel of Luke especially emphasizes the historicity of John the Baptist. In the days of Herod, the king of Judea, there appear Zacharias, a priest of the division of Abijah, and Elizabeth, of the daughters of Aaron. This couple were righteous and walked according to the commandments, but they had no child and were well advanced in years. It is precisely within that reality that God’s promise begins. Luke sets John’s birth not in mythical space but within a specific age, a specific family, and the service of the temple.
