But the angel said to him This phrase introduces a divine messenger, an angel, who is delivering a message from God. In the biblical context, angels are often seen as God's messengers, bringing important news or instructions. The Greek word for angel, "ἄγγελος" (angelos), means "messenger." This highlights the role of angels as intermediaries between God and humans. The presence of an angel signifies the importance and divine origin of the message being delivered. Do not be afraid, Zechariah for your prayer has been heard and your wife Elizabeth will bear you a son and you are to give him the name John Thou shalt call his name John.--The English monosyllable represents the Greek Joannes, the Hebrew Jochanan. The name appears as belonging to the men of various tribes (1Chronicles 3:15; Ezra 8:12; Jeremiah 41:11). As the meaning of the Hebrew word is "Jehovah is gracious," the announcement of the name was in itself a pledge of the outpouring of the grace of God. Verse 13. - Thy prayer is heard. What was the nature of this prayer? The Greek word (δεήσις) used here implies that some special supplication had been offered, and which the angel tells had been listened to at the throne of grace. The righteous old man had not, as some have thought, been praying for a son, - he had long resigned himself in this private sorrow to the will of his God; but we may well suppose that on that solemn occasion he prayed the unselfish patriotic prayer that the long looked for Messiah would hasten his coming. His name John; the shortened form for Jehochanan, "the grace of Jehovah." Under various diminutives, such as Jonah, it was a favorite Hebrew name.Parallel Commentaries ...
