Chuck Smith Bible Commentary - Luke 2:1-52

Now it came to pass in those days, that there went out a decree from Caesar Augustus, that all the world should be taxed. (And the taxing was first made when Cyrenius was governor of Syra.) And all went to be taxed, every one to his own city. And Joseph also went up from Galilee, out of the city of Nazareth, into Judea, and unto the city of David, which is called Bethlehem, (because he was of the house and the lineage of David,) to be taxed with Mary his espoused wife, who at this point was... read more

Sutcliffe's Commentary on the Old and New Testaments - Luke 2:1-52

Luke 2:1 . It came to pass in those days, when John was born, and when the Roman emperor, Augustus Cæsar, filled the throne, and was in the thirty first year of his reign, that, a decree was issued for a general taxation according to men’s property.

Luke 2:10I bring you good tidings of great Joy.Christmas-day lessons1.

John Trapp Complete Commentary - Luke 2:10

10 And the angel said unto them, Fear not: for, behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy, which shall be to all people. Ver. 10. I bring you good tidings ] The first preacher of the gospel was an angel. God hath now taken this honour from the angels, and put it upon the ministers, who are in Scripture called angels,Revelation 2:1; Revelation 2:1 , and angels ministers,Hebrews 1:14; Hebrews 1:14 . The old church had επαγγελιαν , the promise, we have ευαγγελιαν , the joyful tidings. read more

John Trapp Complete Commentary - Luke 2:11

11 For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Saviour, which is Christ the Lord. Ver. 11. A Saviour ] The Greek word is so emphatic (as Cicero witnesseth) that other tongues can hardly find a fit word to express it. The Grecians delivered by Flaminius, rang out Σωτηρ, Σωτηρ , with such a courage, that the birds, astonished, fell to the earth. read more
