The Bible In Paintings 2
ENCOURAGEMENT FOR APPRECIATING AND APPLYING GOD'S WORD






IT’S A BOY!



L U K E
CHAPTER 2

In those days Caesar Augustus issued a decree that a census should be taken of the entire Roman world. (This was the first census that took place while Quirinius was governor of Syria.) And everyone went to his own town to register.

So Joseph also went up from the town of Nazareth in Galilee to Judea, to Bethlehem the town of David, because he belonged to the house and line of David. He went there to register with Mary, who was pledged to be married to him and was expecting a child. While they were there, the time came for the baby to be born, and she gave birth to her firstborn, a son. She wrapped him in cloths and placed him in a manger, because there was no room for them in the inn.

Keep spinning that record, John!

From this 21st century church-age perspective, I am always gobsmacked at the first-century Jews’ resistance to the Gentiles’ salvation, and at the disciples’ astonishment upon learning of their eligibility. To me it bespeaks the profound ignorance of God: as if He could possibly create billions of humans who were all consigned to damnation.

You’re so right Dan; they were indeed tough- we’ve become so spoiled.

Hey, but we can keyboard all day long, which they probably couldn’t do, so there’s that.

Just did the ox-and-donkey census—thanks so much for highlighting it, John!—on tomorrow’s thread, and I got 28 / 43 = 65%; which, considering tomorrow’s stone-and-glass formats, is still pretty good.

Speaking of which: is this the day you will translate your tagline for us?

Only for you will I do this Dan =:^)

“All Life (is) From (the) Surfboard”

The idea was from a silly T-shirt I had which read:

“Omni Vivum Ex Ovo” : “All Life (is) From (the) Egg”

"Omni Vivum Ex Titleist"

so much talent

the faces in #51 are exquisite
#37 would be my top pick
#61 is shocking -in a good way- (it would be fun to observe people’s reactions to it in a public museum or gallery setting)

It’s like I’m running a smorgasboard: something for everyone.
