Two videos that compare two narratives of Jesus’ birth. In the Gospel of Matthew, Joseph is reassured by God through a dream to marry Mary and name their son Jesus, who will save people from their sins. The Gospel of Luke narrates the decree of Caesar Augustus for a census, prompting Joseph and pregnant Mary’s journey to Bethlehem, where Jesus is born. Angels announce his birth to nearby shepherds, who visit and rejoice. Both accounts emphasize divine intervention and fulfillment of prophecies, highlighting the significance of Jesus’ birth as the Saviour.
