The origin of Christmas:

Christmas is the most important festival in western society, with a long history and rich cultural connotation. Its origin can be traced back to the ancient Roman church, and the story behind it is full of legend.

The origin of Christmas can be traced back to the Roman church in 336 AD. In this year, 65438+1October 6 was designated as two festivals to commemorate the birth and baptism of Jesus, that is, the day when God revealed himself to the world through Jesus. This day is also the winter solstice festival of the Roman calendar, which means the beginning of the revival of everything. Therefore, the Roman church chose this day as Christmas.

The real origin of Christmas is closely related to the birth of Jesus. Legend has it that Jesus was conceived by the Holy Spirit and born of the Virgin Mary. God even sent the angel Gabriel to Yue Se in his dream, telling him not to abandon Maria just because she was unmarried and pregnant, but to marry her and name the child "Jesus", which means to save people from sin. When Maria was about to give birth, the Roman government issued an order that everyone must declare their household registration when going to Bethlehem. Yue Se and Mary had to obey.

When they arrived in Bethlehem, it was already dark, but they couldn't find a hotel for the night, only a stable could stay. At that time, Jesus was born. So Mary only gave birth to Jesus in a manger. This story is at the heart of the origin of Christmas. It expresses that Jesus was born as the savior to save human sin and suffering. In this sense, Christmas is not only a festival, but also a symbol of faith and hope.
