Hark! The Herald Angels Didn’t Sing [View all]
We are in Advent, but over the transom has come the sobering news that Image Books has just published a book written by the pope, “Jesus of Nazareth: The Infancy Narratives,” in which he observes that there was neither an ox nor a donkey in the stable where Jesus was born. Nor did a host of angels sing. They spoke.
Is “Hark! the Herald Angels Sing” doomed?
