What the Bible Says About Christmas - 31 Days of Meditationsნიმუში

Twelfth Day of Christmas – 3

So (Joseph) got up, took the child and his mother and went to the land of Israel.

But when he heard that Archelaus was reigning in Judea in place of his father Herod, he was afraid to go there.

Having been warned in a dream, he withdrew to the district of Galilee, and he went and lived in a town called Nazareth.

So was fulfilled what was said through the prophets: “He will be called a Nazarene.”

When Joseph and Mary had done everything required by the Law of the Lord, they returned to Galilee to their own town of Nazareth.

And the child grew and became strong; he was filled with wisdom, and the grace of God was on him.

But his mother treasured all these things in her heart.

And as Jesus grew up, he increased in wisdom and in favor with God and people.

Mt 2:21-23, Lu 2:39,51-52
