people in the Bible: Simeon

people in the Bible:  Simeon by ric Gustafson


Simeon was a devout and pious man. He had been waiting for years for the Messiah to come. The Holy Spirit had promised him that he would not die until seeing the Messiah. Simeon clung to that promise.
One day, Jesus's parents brought him to the Temple. Simeon saw him and lifted him up in his arms. He prayed that now he could depart in peace according to his Word. For his eyes had seen thy salvation. Through Simeon's old eyes, he saw God through Jesus. Praise God.
