This video digs deeply into the Christmas story in Chapter 2 of the Gospel of Matthew, a story with remarkable complexity, where the heroes turn out to be almost as bad as the villain. Could this have actually happened the way that Matthew says it did? Did the Old Testament prophet Jeremiah really predict important parts of this story? If he did, what does that tell us about God? The answers may surprise you.
