Thank you for this. I'm excited to have found your blog!
In preaching through Luke 1-2 this Advent season, I've been similarly struck by this theme of mercy and the connection to the Beatitudes - Jesus' invitation into his kingdom, built on his mercy.
Thanks for this post Michael, such amazing truths to be reminded of and anchored in continually! I just signed up for your newsletter and look forward to many more posts from you. I am so thankful, and helped by your teaching and writing ministry to the body of Christ!!
Very interesting article. Would thoroughly recommend Ian Paul blog Psephizo with articles on Luke and Matthew infancy narratives. I have just sat through an excruciating nativity presentation at church, the past 500 years of biblical exegesis have left it untouched!
