{Arose} (anast(8373)a). Luke is very fond of this word, sixty
times against twenty-two in the rest of the N.T. {Into the hill
country} (eis t(886e) orin(886e)). Luke uses this adjective twice in
this context (here and  1:65 ) instead of 	o oros, the
mountains. It is an old word and is in the LXX, but nowhere else
in the N.T. The name of the city where Zacharias lived is not
given unless Judah here means Juttah ( Jos 15:55 ). Hebron was
the chief city of this part of Judea.
