"How can I know for sure that what you said will happen?" Here, "know" means to learn by experience, suggesting Zechariah was asking for a sign as proof. Alternate translation: "What can you do to prove to me that this will happen?"

This is a euphemism that says that she was very old. See how you translated similar words in [Luke 1:7](./07.md). Alternate translation: "she has lived many days" or "she has lived many years" or "she is very old" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-euphemism]])
