The setting for the Announcement of Jesus’ Birth took place in the most unlikely place. God ignored His heartland and His Temple to go to the little village of Nazareth. When Nathaniel was first told about Jesus, he questioned, “Can anything good come out of Nazareth?” because Nazareth was an area that was the subject of Jewish contempt because of its ethnically mixed population. But what might seem weird to us demonstrates God’s love of all people. No one is outside the range of God’s love.
