kjv@Luke:1:9 @ According to the custom of the priest's office, his lot was to burn incense when he went into the temple of the Lord.

kjv@Luke:1:15 @ For he shall be great in the sight of the Lord, and shall drink neither wine nor strong drink; and he shall be filled with the Holy Ghost, even from his mother's womb.
