Jesus—Child of Divine Destiny (Part 2)

In some particulars Jesus was a blending of his parents’ traits; in other respects he exhibited the traits of one in contrast with those of the other. Joseph and Mary were of good ancestry and educated far above the average for their day and station in life. Their Nazareth home was a simple one-room stone structure with basic furnishings. The Roman census required all inhabitants of the empire to be numbered, and so the parents-to-be traveled to Bethlehem for enrollment.  And during this trip, on August 21, 7 B.C., the child of destiny was born in the stable of an overcrowded inn.
