Religion / Zacarias, Novo Tstamento
English term or phrase: straight on
O autor assume que o relato que o evangelista Lucas faz da irrepreensibilidade de Zacarias é straight on, no parágrafo: Now I grant that Zechariah was a sinner, needing forgiveness. Yet I take Luke’s record of his blamelessness straight on, taking it to mean that Zecharias was a faithful
covenant member, honestly availing himself of the means provided for sins within the covenant arrangement.
