Together, we explore these questions and more, uncovering fascinating insights about the prophetic announcement of Christ’s arrival and the historical events unfolding at that time. Dr. Bengtson takes us through the cultural and historical backdrop of the nativity story, shedding light on the significance of key moments, figures, and prophecies that set the stage for the birth of the Savior.
