Jamieson, Fausset & Brown, on Luke 1:21

Luke 1:21 · Douay-Rheims
“And the people were waiting for Zachary; and they wondered that he tarried so long in the temple.”
On this verse:
“waited--to receive from him the usual benediction (Num 6:23-27). tarried so long--It was not usual to tarry long, lest it should be thought vengeance had stricken the people's representative for something wrong [LIGHTFOOT].”
