Merry Xmas to all of you and Happy New Year 2025! Thanks for all these new insights into this familiar birth narrative. It strikes me, too, that Luke mentions Mary's "first-born son", meaning - to me anyhow - she had others. "the carpenter's Son, whose mother and father we know" in another pericope. Heck they were an ordinary couple in a sense, with an extraordinary Child. God bless.
Greetings from Indiana - According the Charly Brown’s Christmas classic Linus will drop his blanket with the famed words “fear not!” Blessed Christmas!
Thankyou for This interpretation on how in reality Jesus was born to man I had pem familiar surroundings. It's so easy to interpret it into 21 century understanding. Happy Christmas/happy Hannukah. Did so.someone say certain stars are only seen every 800 years! May we perceive and follow the guiding Star! Hope to get to Salisbury for Dean Roberts thanksgiving service at SALISBURY cathedral uk in January God bless.
Thank you, Tamara! It will be great to rest and refresh after Christmas so we can come back reenergized to wrestle with the Gospel some more! Merry Christmas!
