Unlikely Witnesses (Luke 2:28-38)
/Moses received revelation from God that Israel is redeem the firstborn male. Payment had to be made for certain animals and for sons. Mary and Joseph do the ordinary task of paying this redemption because Jesus is their firstborn son. As they go to the temple to pay the redemption they receive revelation from two prophets about Christ's revelation. Mary and Joseph continue to marvel at the Lord's plan rather than understanding the necessity of Christ's advent.
