And lo, an Angel of the Lord came upon them, and the Glory of the Lord shone round about them, and they were sore afraid. And the Angel said unto them; "Fear not, for behold, I bring you tidings of great joy, which shall be to all people. For unto you is born this day, in the city of David, a Saviour, which is Christ the Lord. This shall be a sign unto you: You will find the babe wrapped in swaddling clothes and lying in a manger". Then suddenly there with the Angels a multitude of the Heavenly host prasing God and saying, "Glory to God in the highest and on earth, peace, good will towards men". ......Luke2: Verses 9, 10, 11 |
It was decreed that everyone must register for the census, and because Joseph belonged to the house and line of David, he took Mary from the town of Nazareth in Galilee to Judea to Bethlehem, the town of David, to register for the first census. He registered with Mary, who was pledged to be married to him and was with child. |
While in Bethlehem, the time came for the baby to be born, and she gave birth to her firtborn child, a son. She wrapped him in swaddling cloths and placed him in a manger, as there was no room for them in the inn. |
