The Song of Simeon

Series: A Thrill of Hope: Advent Series for a Weary World

Passage: Luke 2:22-35

Speaker: Mark Skylling

Mark Skylling, a CrossLife Elder, concluded our series A Thrill of Hope by sharing from Luke 2 where Mary and Joseph presented the infant Jesus at the Jerusalem Temple to fulfill Mosaic Law for purification and consecration. As the old hymn O Holy Night mentions "A thrill of hope, the weary world rejoices", Mark shares how 2 older, weary people rejoiced at the sight of the baby brought into the temple and the hope he is to all.
