And the angel said unto them, Fear not: for, behold, I bring you good 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.
And the angel said unto them, Fear not: for, behold, I bring you good 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.
And there were in the same country shepherds abiding in the field, keeping watch over their flock by night. And, lo, the 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 good 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. And this shall be a sign unto you; Ye shall find the babe wrapped in swaddling clothes, lying in a manger. And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host praising God, and saying,
Glory to God in the highest,
And on earth peace,
Good will toward men.
This announcement came to all people which normally means “the people of Israel”, not people in general. The news would mean much to people in every place but it came first to God’s ancient people.
“Christ” is greek for ‘Anointed one’. Anointing was for special service like that of a priest or king.
Old Testament prophecy spoke of a special deliverer that God would send one day. He would not simply be ‘an anointed’ but ‘the anointed one.’
Lord is used in the greek old testament, the Septuagint, of God
In Bethlehem that night there might be one or two babies wrapped in swaddling clothes, but surely only one lying in a manger.1 1 Morris, L. (1988). Luke: an introduction and commentary (Vol. 3, p. 102). Downers Grove, IL: InterVarsity Press.

Week 3
It was the requirement of every Israeli born male to be presented to God in the temple after a set time. There was a man named Simeon in Jerusalem who was known to be very devout and faithful to the LORD. This man waited patiently into his old age to see the messiah. A promise was made to him by God, that he would not see death until he saw the messiah. When the baby Jesus comes to Jerusalem He is seen by Simeon and Simeon sings a blessing over Jesus and is able to go to the grave in peace knowing that the messiah had come.
