Bethlehem

Born in Bethlehem

Mary and Joseph traveled to Bethlehem for a census. There was no room for them in the inn, and the child was born among the animals: Mary wrapped him in cloths and laid him in a manger. Some shepherds watching their flocks that night were the first to hear the news.

The angel said to them, “Don’t be afraid, for behold, I bring you good news of great joy which will be to all the people. For there is born to you today, in David’s city, a Savior, who is Christ the Lord.

Luke 2:1-20 · Read it in the Bible

Did you know? Bethlehem means “house of bread”. Years later, Jesus would say: “I am the bread of life”.
