Luke 1:59-63

Luke 1:59-63 CSB

When they came to circumcise the child on the eighth day,  they were going to name him Zechariah, after his father. But his mother responded, “No. He will be called John.”  Then they said to her, “None of your relatives has that name.” So they motioned to his father  to find out what he wanted him to be called. He asked for a writing tablet and wrote, “His name is John.” And they were all amazed.
