actually outside historians say the authenticity of that nativity
scene is debatable. all we got are hearsay and folk stories . bte its
not 3 kings. but allegedly 3 magis. magis are like magicians who look
at stars for signs .

My Dear Fellowmen,

Did you know that:
1. Joseph and Mary travelled for four days from their home in the city
of Nazareth in Galilee to the city of Bethlehem in Judah, to obey the
king's order of a census? (distance between the two cities is about
100 km)
2. No one accommodated Joseph and Mary in Bethlehem, the city of
David, 8 km south of Jerusalem, despite Joseph being from the line of
David and most of the people there at that time were from that line,
and the young Mary was pregnant? Why? Because they were poor.
3. Since no one accommodated Joseph and Mary to their home, they
eventually found a cave used as shelter for animals on the out-skirts
of town and took refuge there for the night?
4. Jesus was born past midnight in that cave?
5. The animals using that cave were out in the field that night
because it was spring and grass was abundant?
6. Joseph, Mary and Jesus stayed in Bethlehem from the time Jesus was
born until He was presented in the temple 41 days after?
7. Jesus was circumcised on the eighth day from His birth and was
named Jesus?
8. The three kings arrived fourteen days after Jesus was born?

This is the first part of what I would like to share with you. The
next part will be posted in the next several days. Your comments are
most welcome.
