THE OCTAVE DAY OF CHRISTMAS
Adoration of the Shepherds by Matthias Stom, c. 1635–1640, North Carolina Museum of Art. [PD-US]
The shepherds went in
haste to Bethlehem and found Mary and Joseph,
and the infant lying in the manger.
When they saw this,
they made known the message
that had been told them about this child.
All who heard it were amazed
by what had been told them by the shepherds.
And Mary kept all these things,
reflecting on them in her heart.
Then the shepherds returned,
glorifying and praising God
for all they had heard and seen,
just as it had been told to them.
When eight days were completed for his
circumcision,
he was named Jesus, the name given him by the
angel
before he was conceived in the womb.
LUKE 2:16-21
