The Annunciation

In the sixth month, the angel Gabriel was sent from God to a town of Galilee called Nazareth, to a virgin betrothed to a man named Joseph, of the house of David, and the virgin’s name was Mary. [Luke 1:26-27]
And coming to her, he said, “Hail, favored one! The Lord is with you.” [Luke 1:28]
But she was greatly troubled at what was said and pondered what sort of greeting this might be. [Luke 1:29]
Then the angel said to her, “Do not be afraid, Mary, for you have found favor with God. [Luke 1:30]
Behold, you will conceive in your womb and bear a son, and you shall name him Jesus. [Luke 1:31]
He will be great and will be called Son of the Most High and the Lord God will give him the throne of David, his father, and he will rule over the house of Jacob forever, and of his kingdom there will be no end.” [Luke 1:32-33]
But Mary said to the angel, “How can this be, since I have no relations with a man?” [Luke 1:34]
And the angel said to her in reply, “The holy Spirit will come upon you, and the power of the Most High will overshadow you. Therefore the child to be born will be called holy, the Son of God. [Luke 1:35]
And behold, Elizabeth, your relative, has also conceived a son in her old age, and this is the sixth month for her who was called barren; for nothing will be impossible for God.” [Luke 1:36-37]
Mary said, “Behold, I am the handmaid of the Lord. May it be done to me according to your word.” Then the angel departed from her. [Luke 1:38]

The Visitation

During those days Mary set out and traveled to the hill country in haste to a town of Judah, [Luke 1:39]
where she entered the house of Zechariah and greeted Elizabeth. [Luke 1:40]
When Elizabeth heard Mary’s greeting, the infant leaped in her womb, [Luke 1:41a]
and Elizabeth, filled with the holy Spirit, cried out in a loud voice and said, “Most blessed are you among women, [Luke 1:41b-42a]
and blessed is the fruit of your womb. [Luke 42b]
And how does this happen to me, that the mother of my Lord should come to me? [Luke 1:43]
For at the moment the sound of your greeting reached my ears, the infant in my womb leaped for joy. [Luke 1:44]
Blessed are you who believed that what was spoken to you by the Lord would be fulfilled.” [Luke 1:45]
Mary remained with her about three months and then returned to her home. [Luke 1:56]
When the time arrived for Elizabeth to have her child she gave birth to a son. [Luke 1:57]

The Nativity

In those days a decree went out from Caesar Augustus* that the whole world should be enrolled. So all went to be enrolled, each to his own town. And Joseph too went up from Galilee from the town of Nazareth to Judea, to the city of David that is called Bethlehem, because he was of the house and family of David, to be enrolled with Mary, his betrothed, who was with child. [Luke 2:1, 3-5]
While they were there, the time came for her to have her child, and she gave birth to her firstborn son. [Luke 2:6-7a]
She wrapped him in swaddling clothes and laid him in a manger, because there was no room for them in the inn. [Luke 2:7b]
Now there were shepherds in that region living in the fields and keeping the night watch over their flock. The angel of the Lord appeared to them and the glory of the Lord shone around them, and they were struck with great fear. [Luke 2:8-9]
The angel said to them, “Do not be afraid; for behold, I proclaim to you good news of great joy that will be for all the people. For today in the city of David a savior has been born for you who is Messiah and Lord.” [Luke 2:10-11]
And suddenly there was a multitude of the heavenly host with the angel, praising God and saying: “Glory to God in the highest and on earth peace to those on whom his favor rests.” [Luke 2:12,14]
When the angels went away from them to heaven, the shepherds said to one another, “Let us go, then, to Bethlehem to see this thing that has taken place, which the Lord has made known to us.” So they went in haste and found Mary and Joseph, and the infant lying in the manger. [Luke 2:15-16]
When they saw this, they made known the message that had been told them about this child. All who heard it were amazed by what had been told them by the shepherds. [Luke 2:17-18]
And Mary kept all these things, reflecting on them in her heart. [Luke 2:19]
Then the shepherds returned, glorifying and praising God for all they had heard and seen, just as it had been told to them. [Luke 2:20]

The Presentation in the Temple

When eight days were completed for his circumcision, he was named Jesus, the name given him by the angel before he was conceived in the womb. [Luke 2:21]
When the days were completed for their purification, according to the law of Moses, they took him up to Jerusalem to present him to the Lord [Luke 2:22]
and to offer the sacrifice of “a pair of turtledoves or two young pigeons,” in accordance with the dictate in the law of the Lord. [Luke 2:24]
Now there was a man in Jerusalem whose name was Simeon. This man was righteous and devout, awaiting the consolation of Israel, and the holy Spirit was upon him. [Luke 2:25]
It had been revealed to him by the holy Spirit that he should not see death before he had seen the Messiah of the Lord. [Luke 2:26]
He came in the Spirit into the temple; and when the parents brought in the child Jesus to perform the custom of the law in regard to him, he took him into his arms and blessed God, saying: “Now, Master, you may let your servant go in peace, according to your word, for my eyes have seen your salvation, which you prepared in sight of all the peoples, a light for revelation to the Gentiles, and glory for your people Israel.” [Luke 2:27-32]
The child’s father and mother were amazed at what was said about him; [Luke 2:33]
and Simeon blessed them and said to Mary, “Behold, this child is destined for the fall and rise of many in Israel, and to be a sign that will be contradicted (and you yourself a sword will pierce) so that the thoughts of many hearts may be revealed.” [Luke 2:34-35]
When they had fulfilled all the prescriptions of the law of the Lord, they returned to Galilee, to their own town of Nazareth. [Luke 2:39]
The child grew and became strong, filled with wisdom; and the favor of God was upon him. [Luke 2:40]

The Finding in the Temple

Each year the parents of Jesus went to Jerusalem for the feast of Passover, [Luke 2:41]
And when he was twelve years old, they went up according to festival custom. [Luke 2:42]
After they had completed its days, as they were returning, the boy Jesus remained behind in Jerusalem, but his parents did not know it. [Luke 2:43]
Thinking that he was in the caravan, they journeyed for a day and looked for him among their relatives and acquaintances but could not find him, they returned to Jerusalem to look for him. [Luke 2:44-45]
After three days they found him in the temple, sitting in the midst of the teachers, listening to them and asking them questions, [Luke 2:46]
and all who heard him were astounded at his understanding and his answers. [Luke 2:47]
When his parents saw him, they were astonished, and his mother said to him, “Son, why have you done this to us? Your father and I have been looking for you with great anxiety.” [Luke 2:48]
And he said to them, “Why were you looking for me? Did you not know that I must be in my Father’s house?” [Luke 2:49]
But they did not understand what he said to them. [Luke 2:50]
He went down with them and came to Nazareth, and was obedient to them; and his mother kept all these things in her heart. And Jesus advanced [in] wisdom and age and favor before God and man. [Luke 2:51-52]
