/having/_requested
It may be helpful to suggest how Zechariah was asking, since he could not speak. Alternate translation: [making signs with his hands to show that he wanted]
Note 2 topic: translate-unknown
πινακίδιον
/a/_tablet
This was a wooden tablet covered with wax. A person would use a stylus (that is, something with a sharp point) to write in the wax. The wax could later be smoothed out and the tablet could be used again. If your readers might not recognize this object, you could use a general expression. Alternate translation: [something to write on]
