This is a discourse of the birth and life of the Savior through the eyes of his mother, Mary. Her reaction to the Angel Gabriel, seeking out her cousin Elizabeth, reconciliation with Joseph. Her thoughts on that night of birth, when shepherds came to see the new born child. And then her thoughts at the temple, when Simeon and then Anna the elderly prophetess both beheld Jesus and announced him as the long awaited Messiah. And then finally as the Wise Men came to visit; and the subsequent fleeing to Egypt to avoid the murderer Herod. This is an important view of Christmas. I love this story.
