约瑟从梦中醒了, 他相信神通过天使对他说的话。他平凡的生活被永远改变了他就遵著主使者的吩咐, 把马利亚娶过来, 他们一起准备著神儿子的降生
In those days the Roman ruler, Caesar Augustus, had sent out a decree that all the world should be taxed, or registered, and each must travel to the city of their family line. Joseph and Mary were from the family of King David, and so they must travel to Bethlehem.
就在耶稣快出生之前, 又有一个平凡的日子成为了特别的日子。也许, 是约瑟对马利亚说的, 我们要去伯利恒。在那个时候, 罗马的统治者该撒亚古士督宣布了新的收税制度, 叫天下的人都在自己的城里报名上册。因为 约瑟和马利亚是大卫一族一家的人, 因此他们需要去伯利恒报名上册。
They began the 4-5 day journey over rough, hilly roads. Perhaps because they had to travel slowly, the inn in Bethlehem was already filled when they arrived. Their only possibility for a place to spend the night was the stable. No matter that Mary and Joseph were tired and weary, no matter that it was a stable made for animals, this was the night and this was the place God had chosen before the creation of the world for His Son to be born!
去伯利恒需要四五天的时间, 路也不好走, 尽是山路。但他们还是上路了。也许他们走得慢, 当他们到达伯利恒的时候, 客店全满了。他们唯一能过夜的地方就是客店的马槽。虽然约瑟和马利亚非常累, 虽然马槽是牲畜住的地方, 但是神选择了那个晚上, 那个客店的马槽做为神儿子出生的地方。
