The Birth Of John The Baptist
59 And it happened on the eighth day [i.e., since the baby was born] that they came to circumcise the child [i.e., to perform the Jewish rite of identity, signifying the responsibility to observe the law of Moses]. And they [i.e., probably the neighbors and/or relatives of Elizabeth and Zacharias] suggested that they name him Zacharias, after his father. 60 But his mother answered, "No, he will be named John." 61 And they replied to her, " [But] there are not any of your relatives named that."
