Bethlehem, Herod, and the Christmas light at the crossroads
The narrative recounts Herod's last days and brutal orders, then the birth of Jesus near Bethlehem. It portrays Herod's death, the plot to kill many Judeans, and the framed birth of a child named Yeshua, contrasted with the enduring light of a hopeful lineage in a 4 B C setting. Bethlehem stands as the place where the tyrant failed to quench that holy spark.
