uW Translation Notes:

κατὰ τὸ ἔθος τῆς ἱερατείας, ἔλαχε

(Some words not found in SR-GNT: κατά τό ἔθος τῆς ἱερατείας ἔλαχε τοῦ θυμιᾶσαι εἰσελθών εἰς τόν ναόν τοῦ Κυρίου)

Luke is providing background information about how the priests selected members of their group to perform specific duties. Alternate translation: [The priests chose him in their customary way, by casting a lot]

Note 2 topic: translate-unknown

ἔλαχε

˱he˲_was_chosen_by_lot

A lot was a marked stone that was thrown or rolled on the ground in order to help decide something. The priests believed that God would guide the lot and show them which priest he wanted them to choose for a particular duty. If your culture has a similar object, you could use the word for that in your language here. Alternate translation: [by casting a marked stone]

Note 3 topic: grammar-connect-logic-result

τοῦ θυμιᾶσαι, εἰσελθὼν εἰς τὸν ναὸν τοῦ Κυρίου

¬which ˓to˒_burn_incense ˱of˲_the (Some words not found in SR-GNT: κατά τό ἔθος τῆς ἱερατείας ἔλαχε τοῦ θυμιᾶσαι εἰσελθών εἰς τόν ναόν τοῦ Κυρίου)

The ULT puts these phrases in the chronological order of what Zechariah needed to do. If it would be helpful in your language, you could put them in logical order instead. Alternate translation: [to burn incense, and so he went into the temple to do that]

Note 4 topic: translate-unknown

τοῦ θυμιᾶσαι

¬which ˓to˒_burn_incense

The word incense describes a substance that gives off a sweet smell when it is burned. The priests were to burn it as an offering to God each morning and evening on a special altar inside the temple. If your language has a word for this substance, you could use it here. Alternate translation: [to burn a substance that would create a sweet smell as an offering to God]

TSN Tyndale Study Notes:

1:8-9 his order was on duty that week . . . he was chosen by lot: It was common in Old Testament times to cast lots (similar to throwing dice) to determine God’s will (1 Chr 26:13-16; Neh 11:1; Prov 16:33; Jon 1:7). There were twenty-four orders of priests (1 Chr 24:1-19) that took turns in the Temple, and lots were cast to determine which priest would serve in the sanctuary. There were a large number of priests, so this privilege might come only once in a priest’s lifetime. The angel appeared at the most sacred moment of Zechariah’s life.
• to enter the sanctuary of the Lord and burn incense:. Luke uses the word here translated sanctuary (Greek naos) for the Temple building, not the whole Temple grounds, which he calls hieron (Luke 2:27). The Temple building included the Holy Place and the Most Holy Place (see Heb 9:1-5). The priests burned incense twice a day in the Holy Place.
