encounters with Jesus: Simeon

encounters with Jesus: Simeon by ric Gustafson


Forty days after Jesus was born, he was brought to a temple in Jerusalem. A sacrifice was given of a pair of doves  or two young pigeons.
Also at the temple that day was a man named Simeon. He was a prophet and elderly. He was there along with a prophetess named Anna. He took the baby Jesus into his arms and blessed God. He proclaimed that now that he saw Jesus he can depart this life in peace.
