Christmas First: Simeon and Anna tells the tender and hope-filled story of two faithful servants who waited their whole lives to see God’s salvation.
In the courts of the Jerusalem temple, Simeon held fast to God’s promise that he would see the Lord’s Christ before he died. Led by the Spirit, he took the infant Jesus into his arms, blessed God, and spoke of the Child’s destiny. At that very moment, Anna, an elderly prophetess, came forward. She saw the Child, gave thanks to God, and began telling everyone who longed for redemption that He had come.
Told in gentle, poetic language and framed by the warm voice of a grandmother reading to her grandchildren, this richly illustrated book weaves Scripture, history, and devotion into a story children will treasure and parents will love to share. Each page holds no more than twelve lines of lyrical text, making it perfect for family reading, bedtime devotions, classrooms, and churches.
Part of the Christmas First series, Simeon and Anna invites readers to witness the joy of those who had been waiting the longest — and to join in their praise at the coming of the Savior.
