Gill's Notes on the Bible
And when Zacharias saw him,.... The angel; he was troubled, and fear fell upon him; for such appearances of angels were not now so common as formerly: and when they were more usual, generally had such effects on the minds, even of good men; see Judges 6:22.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
He was troubled - He was alone, in the presence of God. The appearance of the angel was sudden, unexpected, and therefore fearful.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse Luke 1:12. Zacharias - was troubled — Or, confounded at his sudden and unexpected appearance; and fear fell upon him, lest this heavenly messenger were come to denounce the judgments of God against a faithless and disobedient people, who had too long and too well merited them.
