Luca 1:60 Meaning and Commentary

Luke 1:60

And his mother answered and said
That is, Elisabeth:

not so, but he shall be called John;
knowing that this was the name wherewith the angel said he should be called; either by divine revelation, she being filled with the Holy Ghost, ( Luke 1:41 ) or by information of her husband, who, doubtless, in writing, gave her an account of all that the angel had said unto him.

Luca 1:60 In-Context

58 E i suoi vicini e parenti, avendo udito che il Signore avea magnificata la sua misericordia inverso lei, se ne rallegravan con essa.
59 Ed avvenne che nell’ottavo giorno vennero per circoncidere il fanciullo, e lo chiamavano Zaccaria, del nome di suo padre.
60 Ma sua madre prese a dire: No; anzi sarĂ  chiamato Giovanni.
61 Ed essi le dissero: Non vi è alcuno nel tuo parentado che si chiami per questo nome.
62 E con cenni domandarono al padre di esso, come voleva ch’egli fosse nominato.
