The strangeness calls for an explanation, and this book provides it by examining the characters and the story in light of the biblical and historical context.\n\nBestselling author Scott Hahn who has written extensively on Scripture and the early Church, brings evidence to light, dispelling some of the mystery of the story. Yet Christmas is made familiar all over again by showing it to be a family story. Christmas, as it appears in the New Testament, is the story of a father, a mother, and a child--their relationships, their interactions, their principles, their individual lives, and their common life. To see the life of this \"earthly trinity\" is to gaze into heaven.\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 0804141126\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: BVV.0804141126.A\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Acceptable\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Hahn, Scott\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: Former library book with the usual stamps, stickers and labels.
