Question: What was the name of the priest who was struck mute for doubting the angel's message about his son's birth?

Answer: Zechariah (father of John the Baptist)

Interesting Tidbit: Zechariah's name means "Yahweh remembers." He was struck mute until his son's birth and naming. When he wrote "His name is John" on a tablet, his speech returned and he immediately praised God with a prophetic song known as the Benedictus.
