“For unto us a Child is born, unto us a Son is given…” Isaiah 9:6 KJV
“What Isaiah prophesied as he gazed into the future from afar, consoling Israel amid its trials and its darkness, is now proclaimed to the Shepherd’s as a present reality from the Angel, from whom a cloud of light streams forth—To you is born this day in the city of David a Savior who is Christ the Lord.” Luke 2:11
Pope Benedict XVI, Homily at Christmas Eve Mass
