Theyreached old age with-out having children,since Elizabeth wasbarren. Once, Saint Zachariah was serving in the Temple at Jerusalem and saw the Archangel Gabriel,standing on the right side of the altar of incense.

4 He predicted that Saint Zachariah would father a son,who would announce the Savior, the Messiah, awaited by the Old Testament Church. Zachariah wastroubled, and fear fell upon him. He had doubts that in old age it was possible to have a son, and heasked for a sign. It was given to him, and it was also a chastisement for his unbelief. Zachariah wasstruck speechless until the time of the fulfillment of the archangel s Elizabeth came to be with child, and fearing derision at being pregnant so late in life, she kept itsecret for five months.

Saint Zachariah was at Jerusalem and was doing his priestly service in the sent soldiers to him to find out the abode of the infant John and his mother. Zachariah an-swered that their whereabouts were unknown to him, and he was killed right there in the Elizabeth continued to live in the wilderness with her son and she died there.
