Sad to hear the news of Lawrence Stager’s death yesterday. He was always very helpful during the dig at Ashkelon!

As you enjoy family this Christmas please consider the first Christmas and how Jesus was surrounded by Joseph’s family at his birth. Mary and Joseph were not alone but attended by Joseph’s female relatives and Bethlehem’s midwives: https://t.co/NQkAPWGxnp

There is no reason to believe that Mary and Jospeh gave birth to Jesus alone on the back forty in a lean-to shelter. They were surrounded by Joseph's relatives and Bethlehem's best midwives: "Rejected and Alone? How tradition obscures the nativity story" https://t.co/lLQ2AJ56Iq

“God is challenging us again to venture out, leave familiar surroundings, and explore—even if that means having to climb up some high hills and down some deep canyons.” - Peter Enns

"the first Christmas is not just Jesus, Mary and Joseph, but of Jesus, Mary, Jospeh, and a dozen extra aunts, uncles, cousins, second cousins, and a number of Shepherds excited to welcome this new boy into their family, tribe and clan.” https://t.co/B24KHt1qgP

“What’s more our images of Mary struggling alone with a panicked Joseph pacing back and forth are illusions. Jesus was born into the loving arms of Jospeh’s female relatives and likely Bethlehem’s better known midwives.” https://t.co/6H1ujL28Z9

“The translation of kataluma as “inn” has obscured this setting. In all likely hood this did not refer to an ancient hotel or paid establishment. Luke uses the term in 22:11 to refer to the room in which the last supper took place, as does Mark 14:14.” https://t.co/TXCawKdrWr

“The midwife and Jospeh’s female cousins and aunts attended to Mary during the birth of Jesus, welcoming him into the world in their loving presence. ” https://t.co/pouwOcysQi

“You were lied to about Christmas. I am willing to bet that the Christmas pageant you’re used to featured a very important character: The Innkeeper." https://t.co/PP4dtbrVT6

"Rather than a rulebook ... the bible is more a land we get to know by hiking through it and exploring its many paths and terrains." - Enns
