Kwathi uJesu esezelwe eBetlehema laseJudiya emihleni kaHerode inkosi, bheka, kwafika eJerusalema izazi zivela empumalanga, besithi: Ungaphi ozelwe eyinkosi yamaJuda? ngokuba sibonile inkanyezi yakhe empumalanga, size ukukhuleka kuye. UHerode inkosi esekuzwile lokho wakhathazeka, neJerusalema lonke kanye naye. Wayesebutha bonke abapristi abakhulu nababhali besizwe, wababuza ukuthi uKristu uzakuzalelwaphi. Basebesithi kuye: EBetlehema laseJudiya, ngoba kulotshiwe kanje ngomprofethi ukuthi: Nawe, Betlehema ezweni lakwaJuda, awusiye omncinyane phakathi kwezikhulu zakwaJuda, ngokuba kuyakuvela kuwe uMbusi oyakubusa abantu bami u-Israyeli. Khona uHerode, ezibizile izazi ngasese, wabuzisisa kuzo isikhathi inkanyezi eyabonakala ngaso. Wazithuma eBetlehema, wathi: “Hambani nibuzisise ngomntwana; nxa senimtholile, ningitshele, ukuze nami ngize ngikhuleke kuye. Sebeyizwile inkosi, bahamba; bheka, inkanyezi ezayibona empumalanga yahamba phambi kwazo, yaze yafika yema phezu kwalapho umntwana ekhona. Kwathi beyibona inkanyezi, bathokoza ngentokozo enkulu kakhulu. Zase zingena endlini, zabona umntwana noMariya unina, zawa phansi, zakhuleka kuye; igolide, nenhlaka, nomure. Kwathi sezixwayisiwe nguNkulunkulu ephutsheni ukuthi zingabuyeli kuHerodi, zasuka zabuyela elizweni lakibo ngenye indlela.

There’s something special about Christmas that tends to bring out the best in all of us. We’re usually kinder, more generous, and spend more time with those we love. But what if it didn’t have to end in December? What if we could celebrate Christmas every day?
The Christmas story is one surprise after another. But sometimes the details become so familiar that they lose their impact. These short prayer devotionals help you to dwell deeply on the most unexpected and significant event in history: that God himself became one of us. Each prayer is written by David Mathis, executive editor for desiringGod.org and pastor at Cities Church in Saint Paul, Minnesota.
It seems we’re all in need of a good hug, real connection, and something delightful to celebrate right now. Our prayer is that this Advent devotional will offer you and your family a way to connect, learn about the real Christmas story, and celebrate Jesus’s birth with new traditions, dinnertime stories, bedtime conversations, and family activities. We hope this Christmas “hug” brings beautiful memories to your home this Advent season!
Gcina amavesi, funda kungaxhunyiwe ku-inthanethi, buka iziqeshana zokufundisa, nokuningi!
