4From the day of His birth, it was clear that Jesus was no ordinary child.
4很顯然地，耶穌從出生那天起，就是個不平凡的小孩。
5It wasn’t just the new star in the heavens or the joyous angelic proclamation that made Jesus’s infancy unique.
5不只是天上出現新星，或天使宣告令人喜悅的信息，使得聖嬰耶穌與眾不同，
6It was also the fact that such a variety of faithful people—from different nations, professions, and backgrounds—felt immediately drawn to Him.
6同時也是因為那形形色色的忠信人們——來自不同國家、職業和背景——在受到感召時，都立即前來接近祂。
7Even before He uttered His invitation to “come, follow me,” they came (Luke 18:22).
7甚至在祂說出「來跟從我」這項邀請之前，他們就已來到（路加福音18：22）。
8Not everyone came to Him, of course—there were many who paid Him no notice, and a jealous ruler even sought His life.
8當然不是每個人都前來見祂，有許多人不理會祂，有個妒忌的統治者甚至想要殺害祂。
9But the humble, pure, devoted seekers of righteousness found what they were seeking in Him.
9但是謙卑、純潔、忠誠的義人，在祂身上尋見他們所尋求的。
10Their devotion inspires our own, for the “good tidings of great joy” brought to the shepherds were for “all people,” and the “Saviour, which is Christ the Lord” was born that day unto all of us (see Luke 2:10–11).
10他們的忠誠也激勵了我們的忠誠，因為牧羊人所聽到的「大喜的信息」是對「萬民」說的，那位「救主，就是主基督」是為了所有的人而誕生的（見路加福音2：10-11）
11Although Jesus Christ had glory with God the Father “before the world was” (John 17:5), He was willing to be born in lowly circumstances and live among us on earth.
11雖然耶穌基督在「未有世界以先」就與父神同享榮耀（約翰福音17：5），但祂願意降生在卑微的環境裡，在世上居住於我們之中。
12As you read Luke 2:1–7, what do you notice about the humble circumstances of His birth?

17The birth and infancy of Christ were marked by witnesses and worshippers from many walks of life—humble shepherds who visited the stable, wealthy Wise Men who brought gifts to His home, a widow who served in the temple, and a faithful disciple who anxiously anticipated the coming Messiah.
17基督在誕生和襁褓時期，有來自社會各階層的人為祂作見證和崇拜祂——造訪馬廄的謙卑牧羊人，帶著禮物來訪的富有博士，一位在聖殿裡服務的寡婦，以及一位熱切期待彌賽亞來臨的忠信門徒。

26Joseph never could have done what he was asked to do—protect Jesus in His childhood—without heaven’s help.
26若沒有上天的幫助，約瑟可能無法做到他被要求的事——保護童年時期的耶穌。
27Like the Wise Men, he received a revelation that warned him of danger.
27就像那些博士一樣，他獲得了一項啟示，警告他會有危險。
28As you read about Joseph’s experience, think about physical and spiritual dangers that face families today.
