The First Christmas

THE FIRST CHRISTMAS
Fr. Denis O'Shea. Every Christmas Day throughout the world, we rise reverently to hear with wondering awe the beautiful Gospel of the Nativity. This Book is an attempt to reconstruct the scenes of the first Christmas with all the authentic detail available and to present the events in the form of a story. Here a research expert in the field of sacred history recreates the story of the Nativity, highlighting it with interesting facts about life in Palestine at the time of Our Lord's birth. Father O'Shea's tender depiction of Mary, the loving and gentle young mother-to-be, and of Joseph, stalwart, protective and solicitous, sets the scene for the joyful birth of the Holy Child. The author's vast knowledge of Palestine and his travels through the country enable him to give an "on-the-spot" account of the scenery, the climate, and the sacred historic places that are remnants of ancient times. What kind of house did Mary and Joseph have in Nazareth? How did they dress? What food did they eat? Why were they refused admission to the inn? Where was the stable? Answers to these and other questions make this story of the first Holy Night eloquently appealing and interesting, etching the happenings of the First Christmas permanently in memory and heart.
160 pages. Hardback.
