Having children was a big deal in this time. Having a male child seemed even bigger. They had both wanted children for a long time and probably felt the reproach of the others who were able to do so. Their consistent prayers were an indication of their faith, believing God for the impossible. Even at that probably all hope was passing with the years as we see Zacharias unbelief when greeted by the angel.
