Commentary on Luke 1:6
Zacharias and Elisabeth's righteousness 'before God' (Greek 'enopion tou Theou') emphasizes that true righteousness is defined by God's standard, not human opinion. Their blameless observance of commandments doesn't imply sinless perfection but genuine faith expressed through obedience. From a Reformed perspective, their righteousness was by faith (Rom 4:3), evidenced by faithful adherence to God's law. They exemplify Old Testament saints who trusted God's promises before Christ's coming.
