Lucas 2:16 Meaning and Commentary

Luke 2:16

And they came with haste
In the night, leaving their flocks, to see their incarnate Lord, as Zacchaeus hastened down from the tree to receive the Saviour. The wonderfulness of the vision, the importance of the thing related, the eagerness of their spirits to see the thing that was told them, put them on making quick dispatch, and hastening to the city with all speed:

and found Mary and Joseph;
as they had been directed by the angel, in the city of Bethlehem, in an inn there, and in a stable in the inn:

and the babe lying in a manger:
where Mary had put it as soon as born, and had wrapped it in swaddling clothes; because there was no room in the inn, and as the angel had told them they should find it, ( Luke 2:12 )

Lucas 2:16 In-Context

14 Glória a Deus nas maiores alturas, e paz na terra entre os homens de boa vontade.

15 E logo que os anjos se retiraram deles para o céu, diziam os pastores uns aos outros: Vamos já até Belém, e vejamos isso que aconteceu e que o Senhor nos deu a conhecer.

16 Foram, pois, a toda a pressa, e acharam Maria e José, e o menino deitado na manjedoura;

17 e, vendo-o, divulgaram a palavra que acerca do menino lhes fora dita;

18 e todos os que a ouviram se admiravam do que os pastores lhes diziam.
