Why did Zechariah name his son John?

An angel appeared to Zechariah before John was born and told Zechariah that his wife would bear a son and that he was to name him John. Zechariah at first could not believe this, because his wife was too old to bear children. As a result he was struck dumb until after his son was born. (Luke 1:5-25) When asked what he wished to name the child, Zechariah wrote "His name is John" on a tablet, whereon he immediately recovered his speech. (Luke 1:57-66) The name means "God is gracious" in Hebrew.

Why did Mary doubt the angel?

Mary did not doubt the angel. She asked for information: "How will this come to be, since I do not know man?" Zechariah doubted: "How will I know this?" The obvious answer to Zechariah was, "I just told you." That's why he was struck dumb, and Mary was given an answer. Ted Wartman
