Gabriel: You and Elizabeth are going to have a son.

Zach: How? We're too old.

Gabriel: Do you know who I am and what I do? Here's a few months of muteness to persuade you not to argue with an angel next time.

Gabriel appears to have gotten angry when he did this, so now I'm picturing the conversation between him and God.

God: go tell Zacharia what's happening.

Gabriel: He won't believe me.

God: (grinning and winking) Convince him.

Gabriel: Yes, SIR!

The five Gospels: Matthew, Mark, Luke, John, dwashbur.

And THEN what happened when Gabriel visited Zachariah? I hope Zachariah didn't spill the incense.

God: Report.

Gabriel: As I figured, he didn't believe me.

God: So what'd you do?

Gabriel: Told him about his miracle son and all the cool things he'll be and do, then struck him mute so he couldn't tell anybody.

God: Nice touch.
