Advent Day 4

What did Elisabeth and Zacharias name their son?

Luke 1:57–63

57 Now Elisabeth’s full time came that she should be delivered; and she brought forth a son.

58 And her neighbours and her acousins heard how the Lord had shewed great bmercy upon her; and they rejoiced with her.

59 And it came to pass, that on the aeighth day they came to bcircumcise the child; and they called him Zacharias, after the name of his father.

60 And his mother answered and said, Not so; but he shall be called John.

61 And they said unto her, There is none of thy kindred that is called by this name.

62 And they made signs to his father, how he would have him called.

63 And he asked for a writing table, and wrote, saying, His name is John. And they marvelled all.
