Study Lenses

The verse centers on "having", "come", "able", "speak", "perceived", "vision", "seen", and "sanctuary". It is saying that the verse draws attention to "having" and "come", so its meaning should be read from those terms before moving to application.

The nearby context moves from verse 21's "And the people were waiting for Zacharias..." into verse 23's "And it came to pass when the...", so "having" and "come" belong inside that flow. In Luke context, the local focus is Christ, faith, and discipleship.

A plain takeaway is to answer the verse's own emphasis on "having" and "come" with trust shaped by these words, not by a vague optimism outside the passage.
