You sound like someone who believes this legend. Tell me, even if I give you the existence of Jesus (I don’t), and even if the miracles and all that were true (I believe the whole thing is legend), who was sitting around about the time of his birth saying, “I ought to take note of this stuff, this kid’s definitely going to be worth writing about!”???
Wow, that was really profound. Thanks!
The Old Testament is full of the promise of Christmas.
Isaiah in particular ‘looks forward’ to the nativity - “unto us a Child is born, a King is given. And He shall be named Wonderful, Councilor, the Everlasting King”, and so on. The Jews were emphatically looking for and expecting the coming of a Messiah.
So yes, there were a great many people who were looking for the coming of some great revelation. And not all of them were Jews.
Please Sir, I've been witnessing you make such comments on many threads, for months now. Allow me to point you to a small, online source, which discusses, what more than a few, extra-biblical sources can be quoted as saying about there having been an actual "Jesus" [as he is known among English speaking peoples]. This small work may help you work towards rectifying your ignorance of historical fact(s);
