Verses 27-28
The Holy Spirit led Simeon to be present in the temple courtyard when Mary and Joseph arrived to consecrate Jesus to God (cf. Luke 4:1). Again the presence of Jesus became an occasion for joy and praise of God (Luke 1:46-55; Luke 2:14; Luke 2:20). This was consistently the response of the godly to Jesus in Luke’s Gospel.
