Pray For the Peace of Jerusalem
Character Studies From The Bible
John the Baptist
21 Meanwhile, the people were waiting for Zechariah and wondering why he stayed so long in the temple. 22 When he came out, he could not speak to them. They realized he had seen a vision in the temple, for he kept making signs to them but remained unable to speak.
23 When his time of service was completed, he returned home. 24 After this his wife Elizabeth became pregnant and for five months remained in seclusion. 25 The Lord has done this for me, she said. In these days he has shown his favor and taken away my disgrace among the people.
(Luke 1)

Pray For the Peace of Jerusalem
The birth of John to Zechariah and Elizabeth is very similar to a pattern established in the Hebrew Scriptures, what Christians call the "Old Testament". In fact, the similarity presents these two Books to be one seamless narrative. Like the Patriarchs of Genesis, Samuel and Samson in the time of the Judges, and even the infertile woman who is blessed by Elisha, the miraculous pregnancy of a woman who is "too old" is a recurring theme.
In another continuation of the theme, Gabriel announced that John would not drink alcohol nor cut his hair. This was the ordinance of the Nazirites, and was a form of dedication to God that was visible to all. Samson was also dedicated as a Nazirite, but broke his vows because he was impulsive and could not control his desires. A man could be a Nazirite for a limited time frame, or it could be a life-long calling, which is what was intended for John.
Even before his birth, we have gotten a good description of what he is going to be like from the Angel Gabriel. No Wonder Zechariah was speechless!
Come and Pray For the Peace of Jerusalem, For Our FRiends in Need, For Persecuted Believers, and For Our Beloved Nation.

PRAYERS ASCENDING ON HIGH FOR THE PEACE OF JERUSALEM! And for the Preservation of the Valiant Israeli Nation!
"The Angel Gabriel Appearing To Zacharias" William Blake c. 1799

ND the people waited for Zacharias, and marvelled that he tarried so long in the temple.
And when he came out, he could not speak unto them: and they perceived that he had seen a vision in the temple: for he beckoned unto them, and remained speechless. |
And it came to pass, that, as soon as the days of his ministration were accomplished, he departed to his own house.
And after those days his wife Elisabeth conceived, and hid herself five months, saying,
Thus hath the Lord dealt with me in the days wherein he looked on me, to take away my reproach among men.

You made an excellent comparison of other Nazarites and jogged my memory.
Also, Judges 13 indicates Samson was a “miraculous” birth - mother childless and unable to give birth, visited by an angel - much like John.
Joining in prayer, left that other site, for Israel, our beloved America, and all God’s people.

Amen.
Say to Aaron and his sons, This is the way you shall bless the Israelites. Say to them, The Lord bless you and watch, guard, and keep you; The Lord make His face to shine upon and enlighten you and be gracious (kind, merciful, and giving favor) to you; The Lord make His face to shine upon and enlighten you and be gracious (kind, merciful, and giving favor) to you; The Lord lift up His [approving] countenance upon you and give you peace (tranquility of heart and life continually).
