00:08Joseph, son of David
00:13Who... who are you?
00:15What is this place?
00:17Do not be afraid, Joseph.
00:19I am a messenger of the Lord.
00:22A messenger?
00:24Why have you come to... me?
00:27The Lord knows the doubts that weigh upon your heart.
00:33Do not be afraid to take Mary as your wife.
00:39But Mary... she's with child.
00:42I don't understand how this could be.
00:45What is conceived in her is from the Holy Spirit.
00:50So it's true.
00:51She... she carries a holy child?
00:55Yes. She will give birth to a son, and you are to name him Jesus, for he will save his
01:02people from their sins.
01:05But how can I, a simple carpenter, be a father to the Son of God?
01:11I'm not worthy of such an honor.
01:13The Lord looks not at status, but at the heart.
01:17You are chosen because of your righteousness and compassion.
01:22I've always tried to live a just life.
01:24But this...
01:26It's so much more than I could have imagined.
01:29Have faith, Joseph.
01:31The road will not be easy, but you will not walk it alone.
01:35The Lord will guide you.
01:37But what should I do when others question us?
01:41How can I shield Mary from shame?
01:44Walk with integrity and trust in God's plan.
01:47The truth will reveal itself in time.
01:50For now, go forth with courage.
01:55I will do as the Lord commands.
01:57I will stand by Mary and protect her and the child.
02:02Blessed are you among men.
02:04Your name will be remembered for generations to come.
02:10Your words have...
02:11have eased my heart.
02:14peace be with you, Joseph.
02:16Remember, the Lord is with you, always.
02:20Wait!
02:22Will I see you again?
02:24Have faith.
02:38Mary.
02:43Mary!
02:46Joseph?
02:50Mary, I need to speak with you.
02:53Of course.
02:54Is everything all right?
02:56I had a dream.
02:57A vision.
02:58An angel appeared to me,
03:00confirming everything you told me.
03:02Truly?
03:04Please forgive my doubt.
03:05I believe you.
03:06And I want to be there for you.
03:08For both of you.
03:09Will you...
03:11still have me by your side?
03:13Yes, of course.
03:14I never doubted you.
03:17And so,
03:19with hearts united
03:20and faith strengthened,
03:22Mary and Joseph
03:24embraced the path
03:25laid before them,
03:26ready to face
03:28whatever challenges
03:29lay ahead.
03:41apples, apples,
03:43the best tasting apples
03:44in Nazareth.
03:46Goats,
03:47sheep,
03:48small ones,
03:48big ones.
03:49Extra good offer
03:50on this old thing.
03:52Only today.
03:54What do you think of this one?
03:56Do you like the color?
03:58Mm-hmm.
04:07Look, Joseph,
04:08fresh dates.
04:09Should we get some
04:10for our dinner?
04:11Ooh, absolutely.
04:12I can never resist
04:14your date cakes.
04:15Can we get two bags
04:16of dates, please?
04:17Of course,
04:18Joseph,
04:19coming right up.
04:21And one extra bag
04:22for free
04:23for your pregnant lady.
04:26Thank you,
04:27Ezekiel.
04:27You're...
04:43It's a romance.
04:52Out of the way,
04:54you filthy animal.
04:55Rome has no time
04:56for weaklings like you.
04:58Oh, wow.
05:01What are you doing?
05:03Please, sir,
05:04do something.
05:04They're stealing my goats.
05:06Hold your tongue,
05:07Hebrew,
05:08unless you want trouble.
05:10I heard that Romans
05:12eat for free.
05:19Why are they here?
05:22These Romans,
05:23they think they own us.
05:26Jacob,
05:26our taxes,
05:27did you pay them?
05:28Did you?
05:29Did you?
05:30Ah!
05:33Ah!
05:48Silence!
05:54By decree of Caesar Augustus, a census shall be taken of the entire Roman world.
06:02Are they really expecting everyone to leave home?
06:06All must return to their ancestral towns to be registered and taxed accordingly.
06:13This is mandatory and shall commence immediately.
06:21That means I'll need to return to Bethlehem. It's where my family's from.
06:27Bethlehem! That's quite a journey, especially now.
06:33Ah, Joseph, Mary, looks like we all have some traveling ahead of us.
06:40Indeed, Simon. But are you prepared for such a trip?
06:45As ready as these old bones will ever be.
06:50But you too. It's a long road. And Mary, you're expecting. Will you be all right?
06:56We have faith that we'll be taken care of. But thank you for your concern, Simon.
07:02Very well. If you say so, I'll be praying for you. All three of you.
07:09Thank you, Simon. And good luck to you too. Be careful.
07:14Mary, perhaps it's best if I go alone to register. You should stay here where it's safe.
07:20We're in this together, Joseph. Besides, the child is due soon. I want us to be together when the time
07:27comes.
07:29I should know better than to argue with you.
07:32Yes, you should.
07:34Then let's prepare for the journey. We'll leave as soon as possible to give ourselves plenty of time.
07:41Agreed. I'll start packing our essentials. And I'll bake some of those date cakes for the road.
07:47Good. Sounds like a plan.
07:50And so, with hearts full of hope and a touch of excitement, Mary and Joseph prepared to embark on their
07:58journey,
07:59unaware of the extraordinary events that awaited them in Bethlehem.
08:05Well, old friend, it's going to be quite the trip. I hope you're ready for the road ahead.
08:13Ha ha. Don't worry. We'll take it slow. Just you, me, and Mary. Together, we'll make it to Bethlehem.
08:21Lord, guide our steps and keep us safe. Thank you for the blessings you've given us.
08:27Ha ha ha.
08:30Well, I think that's everything. How does that feel, Reuben? Not too heavy?
08:37Thank you so much, Reuben. We couldn't make this journey without you.
08:45All right then, Bethlehem. Ready or not, here we come.
09:10See that cliff over there? I remember climbing it as a boy. Thought I could touch the clouds from the
09:16top.
09:17Did you succeed?
09:19Not quite. But I did get a spectacular view of the valley.
09:24Right?
09:56Mary, we need to hurry and find cover before it gets worse.
10:08Get back! Don't come any closer.
10:12Please, Lord, send your angel and protect us.
10:28Joseph, perhaps we should rest again soon.
10:32We're getting close, but you're right. Maybe a short break wouldn't hurt.
10:37Look, Joseph! There it is!
10:45Bethlehem! We're almost there!
10:48I wonder what awaits us there.
10:51Whatever it is, we'll face it together.
11:01Stay close, Mary. It's quite busy.
11:12Joseph! It looks like many others had the same idea.
11:18Don't worry. We'll find a place.
11:31Can't you people read? The sign says we're full.
11:40Sorry, we're full, and you don't look like you could afford it anyways.
11:46Good evening, sir. We seek a room for the night. My wife is...
11:50God help me! For the hundredth time, we are full!
11:54Sorry for disturbing you this late, sir. We're looking for...
11:57We're full, and you should clean yourself up, if you want to find somewhere to stay.
12:03Good evening, sir. We're looking for a place to stay for the night.
12:07I'm expecting our child soon, and this is the only inn we haven't tried yet.
12:12I'm truly sorry, but we're completely full.
12:16The census has every room occupied.
12:20We understand. Thank you for your time.
12:27Wait a moment.
12:30There is a couple right outside of town. They are very kind and hospitable.
12:35You should try there. Just keep walking forward, and you won't miss it.
12:39Thank you, sir. We'll do that.
12:47This must be it. Last chance.
12:59Huh?
13:01Hello. Is... Is your father or mother home right now?
13:06Mm-hmm.
13:08One moment.
13:14Dad, there's someone at the door!
13:19Hello there. How can I help you?
13:22Sir, we've come a long way from Nazareth.
13:24My wife is expecting our child very soon.
13:27We desperately need a place to stay tonight.
13:30I wish I could help you, but all my rooms are occupied.
13:34Not even a corner left.
13:36Please, we've tried everywhere else.
13:38Is there anything at all?
13:40Even a small space?
13:42I'm sorry.
13:44Dear.
13:47Perhaps the stable?
13:49The stable?
13:51It's not much, but it's warm and dry.
13:54We would be grateful for any shelter.
13:58Very well. Follow me.
14:21Here, dear, some fresh linens and blankets.
14:24We'll bring you some hot water and food.
14:28Thank you both so much. You've been very kind.
14:31Oh, it's the least we can do.
14:34Let us know if you need anything else.
14:42Oh, sorry, Reuben.
14:43I'll get that off you.
14:46It's humble, but it has a certain charm, doesn't it?
14:50It does.
14:52And we're together.
14:54That's what matters.
14:59Thank you for everything, Reuben.
15:01You can rest now.
15:08How are you feeling now?
15:10At peace. I think we were meant to be here.
15:17Joseph, it's time.
15:19I'm here, Mary. You're not alone.
15:24And so, on this silent night,
15:28hope entered the world in the most humble of places.
15:33A gift of love, destined to bring light to all.
15:48Did I ever tell you about the time a lion tried to snatch one of my sheep?
15:54Only a hundred times.
15:56And each time, the lion gets bigger.
15:58Next thing we know, it'll be a dragon.
16:02Fine. I'll never tell you a story again.
16:07Thank God.
16:10Hmm. The stars are especially bright tonight.
16:17Indeed they are.
16:19Seems like they're celebrating something.
16:22What is that?
16:32Do not be afraid.
16:37I bring you good news that will bring great joy to all people.
16:42Today, in the city of David,
16:44a saviour has been born to you.
16:46He is Christ the Lord.
16:49A saviour?
16:50Born here?
16:51In Bethlehem?
16:53Yes.
16:54You will find a baby wrapped in swaddling clothes,
16:58lying in a manger.
17:01Glory to God in the highest heaven,
17:08and on earth peace to those on whom his favour rests.
17:18Glory to God in the highest heaven,
17:25and on earth peace to those on whom his favour rests.

18:36Glory to God in the highest heaven,
18:37We must go to Bethlehem and see this child the Lord has told us about.
18:42And on earth peace to those on whom his favour rests.
18:49Glory to God in the highest heaven,
18:55and on earth peace to those on whom his favour rests.
19:02And on earth peace to those on whom his favour rests.
19:15He's perfect.
19:19Welcome to the world, Jesus.
19:34Are you sure this is it?
19:36This old stable?
19:39I'm sure.
19:40The star led us here.
19:48Whoa, easy there.
19:51Peace be with you.
19:52Can I help you?
19:54Forgive us for disturbing you at this late hour.
19:58We were guided here by a star and a message from angels.
20:05Angels?
20:07Please, come inside.
20:15It's just as they said.
20:17A child wrapped in swaddling clothes and lying in a manger.
20:21We brought gifts.
20:23They're humble, but we offer them with all our hearts.
20:27It's one of my favorite flutes.
20:32Your kindness means so much to us.
20:34Fresh milk and honey to help you regain your strength.
20:40You're most generous.
20:42Please make yourselves comfortable.
20:45Here's something for you too, donkey.
20:55The angels told us that this child is the Savior, Christ the Lord.
21:07He is a blessing to us all.
21:17Sleep, holy child, rest your eyes.
21:28Underneath the starry skies.
21:35Angels guard you from above.
21:44Wrapped in everlasting love.
21:56Hush, little one, do not fear.
22:06Heaven's light is shining near.
22:14The stars will twinkle while you rest.
22:23Held against your mother's chest.
22:27The stars shone brighter and brighter.
22:30And then the angel appeared to us.
22:35And then the angel told us, do not be afraid.
22:40It was beautiful.
22:42Hundreds of angels appeared and sang together.
22:46And Eli started crying.
22:49I did not.
22:51I did not.
23:09In this humble stable, strangers became friends.
23:15United by the wonder of a promise.
23:18Fulfilled.
23:36Gentlemen, the night is unusually still.
23:39Can you feel it?
23:42Indeed.
23:43There's a sense of anticipation in the air.
23:46As if the very heavens are holding their breath.
23:50Look there.
23:56By the heavens, such a star can only herald one thing.
24:02The fulfillment of the prophecy.
24:05A new king is born.
