It was not a matter of pride, as you may think.
Dressed inconspicuously and in culturally appropriate garb he merged into the crowd...an onlooker.
The news headliner peppered his angelic brain.
“Behold a Virgin shall conceive.!!.”
{Behold, the virgin shall conceive and bear a Son}
This was the message he himself had been given to report to Isaiah *[2:13} many years ago, and now he could be a witness. It had come true. The Virgin did conceive. So many will wonder
“How did a Virgin conceive?”
Luke described the supernatural way to Mary.
“The Holy Spirit will come upon you, and the power of the Highest will overshadow you; therefore, also, that Holy One who is to be born will be called the Son of God.” Luke 1:35
Now they were all in Bethlehem, the town of David. She had indeed bore a Son. He was The Son. There he lay; as a baby in a manger. Such an exciting event!
Heaven had been abuzz for the past nine months with such anticipation. Fellow angels had descended to announce to the shepherds {Luke 2: 8-13}
{And there were shepherds living out in the fields nearby, keeping watch over their flocks at night. An angel of the Lord appeared to them, and the glory of the Lord shone around them, and they were terrified. But the angel said to them, “Do not be afraid. I bring you good news that will cause great joy for all the people. Today in the town of David a Savior has been born to you; he is the Messiah, the Lord. This will be a sign to you: You will find a baby wrapped in cloths and lying in a manger.” Suddenly a great company of the heavenly host appeared with the angel, praising God..}
ReporterR was part of a heavenly knighthood and he glowed with the pleasure of this day that would change the world.
He saw that many guests at the manager noticed a change but could not discern why it felt different in Bethlehem that day.
He overheard many say with wonder in their voice,
“Something is different today. What is it?” while others
queried loudly “Why are these shepherds here?”
In heaven, it was the best news accompanied with so much joy and celebration.
“Finally the age of Grace had arrived! No more law. ”
God’s Son, Messiah Jesus had come down to earth. Redemption plan for man and the fulfilment of prophecy was here.
ReporterR knew that Yahweh could do anything. He was Omniscient - all knowing, all seeing and all wise.
