To think Joseph and Mary were the parents of the Son of God. And they still followed all the Jewish laws when a child is born. Simeon. What a prophetic truth he spoke. People would either accept him with joy. Or totally reject him. Herod the great. Really? I’m sure he named himself that. Funny how the scribes immediately state that he would be born in Bethlehem. But when they crucified him. It was only Nazareth mentioned. Politicians have not changed over the years. Where’s your backbone. Not sure if we will witness satan thrown into the lake of fire. But reading this morning someone else belongs also. Murdered his own children and several of his wives. He loved to have the reverence of people Rebuilt the temple. But also built many pagan temples. Always looking for the loyalty of people. But that was superficial Full of himself. That’s where his loyalty was.
