April 10 ~ Things in the Bible not really in the Bible…and a few surprises

 

Oops of the Day  

The shepherds the angels appeared to the night of Jesus’ birth were humble but respected men.

Luke 2:8-20  –  Genesis 46:33-34

Fact of the Day

No!  Shepherds were despised.    The Jewish Talmud forbade shepherds from being witnesses.  They were not allowed in the temple.  Further, no help was to be given to heathens or shepherds.  True, David rose from being a shepherd to a king, but this shows his strength in rising above his circumstances.  And Jesus?  Jesus dared to be the lowest of the low so he could show us how to be the highest of the high.
