The Forgotten Nativity

The culture, customs and myths regarding childbirth at the time of the Bible. This is a different kind of Christmas story. Although it is less familiar, it is from the Bible and discusses complications surrounding the birth of the anticipated Messiah. We can easily miss it or fail to notice its meaning if we don't also know what those living in the Bible's world thought about life, death, disease, birth and the evils lurking near every pregnant woman. Listen to the miracle of the incarnation from a fresh perspective.
