Songs of Messiah: Servant Songs
Nov 29, 2020 • Brian Zahnd
The Christmas story doesn't begin with shepherds and magi coming to a cave in Bethlehem, it begins with enigmatic oracles from the Hebrew prophets centuries earlier. It begins with an angel making a surprising announcement to an old priest in Jerusalem. It begins with an angel making an even more surprising announcement to a young virgin in Nazareth. And in all of these cases there are songs—the songs of Isaiah, Zechariah, Mary, and Simeon, the songs of angels. These are the Songs of Messiah.
