Stephen and 30 Holy Eucbaritt Morning Prayer by FATHER EVENT HOLY CROSS ROMAN CATHOLIC CHURCH Since we are In the Christmas season let a look at the section the Gospels Matthew and Luke chapter 1 and of each Gospel which talk about the birth and Infancy of Jesus These Tour chapters are usually referred to the Infanc Gospel There are both striking differences and yet bask First of theyareol time and content While Mallhcw suggests that Joseph lory lived In Bethlehem Luke writes that Jesus wasonly born then because of the census And while he geographical stress in Mat the Gospel 1b on Bethlehem In Luke a Gospel that stress on Nazareth But a greater difference than that of place is that of time For while the events told to us by Matthew would appear to demand a long period of time perhaps as long as two yean Herod had all the boys up to two years killed Luke s Gospel implies that the period between the birth of Jesus and the return to Nazareth was quite short But the biggest differences of all are those of content Matthew for instance tells us nothing of all the following events In Luke a count the Annunciation the birth and circumcision of John th Baptist the incidents In the Temple Simeon Anna th Visitation of Mary to Elisabeth On the other hand Luke tells us nothing of the following in Mat thew account Joseph wanting to repudiate Mary the Magi the from Egypt Herod massacre of the children But there are also some striking similarities In the two accounts Even although they are handled a little differently in each Gospel both accounts agree about and stress three things l the birth of at Bethlehem the Da descent of Jesus and 3 that Jesus was conceived of the Holy Spirit What can we conclude from all this First of all the differences indicate that the Evangelists almost certainly used different literary sources here This Is not surprising when we recall that the two Gospels were composed In ana for two different and possibly distant Christian communities and that they were only written down about TO years after the birth of Jesus A second and related conclusion is this the three points of agreement listed above would appear to be the essentials of the story from the historical point of view A third and final conclusion Is also called for This Is the fact that the primary interest or the Gospel writers in these chapters does no appear to be a biographical one so much as a theological one Apart from the three clearly historical affirmations listed above thcdlfferenccswhichwelistedsuggestlhls theological stress Further confirmation for this conclusion is found In the facts that only of the Evangelists write about the birth and Infancy of Jesus and even In Matthew and Luke there Is no real interest shown In biographical details such as he home life of Jesus his ap pearance his education etc We might say that the theological of Matthew and Luke were three 1 Jesus was man bom of a woman at a particular time and place Jesus was alio Messiah and Son of God conceived of the Holy Spirit The fact of Jesus birth fulfilled the past history of Israel and was the first step towards his future mission of suffering and glory This last affirmation Is made by Matthew and Luke in the Infancy Gospela by means of encompassing the birth and infancy of in a great deal of Old Testament imagery and atmosphere as well as narrating episodes about his birth which involved both suffering polntingtothcCross and joy Explain Cub Symbols At Night for Parents Explanations of cub symbols recently for Georgetown and procedures and an In Pack of the Pack by District At
