The Birth of Jesus

Luke 2:1-7

Around this time, Emperor Augustus issued an order for a census to be taken throughout the Empire.

This registration, the first of its kind, took place when Quirinius was governing in Syria.

Everyone went to be registered, each to his own town.

So Yosef, because he was a descendant of David, went up from the town of Natzeret in the Galil to the town of David, called Beit-Lechem, in Y'hudah,

to be registered, with Miryam, to whom he was engaged, and who was pregnant.

While they were there, the time came for her to give birth;

and she gave birth to her first child, a son. She wrapped him in cloth and laid him down in a feeding trough, because there was no space for them in the living-quarters.
