THE PRESENTATION IN THE TEMPLE

When Mary presented Jesus to God the Father in the temple (the 4th Joyful Mystery of the Rosary) and obeyed the Law of the Torah in Exodus 13:2, she did much more than what it appears to be.

Since Mary is OUR mother as well (John 19:27 and Revelation 12:17), she also presents us to her Son Jesus in heaven, in the Heavenly Temple . The closer you are to your Mother in Heaven in heart and mind, the more she will present you AND your petitions to Jesus. And as we all know from her request at Cana, Jesus has a hard time refusing her!

This will come in very handy on your deathbed, FYI...

So they hung around Bethlehem in a manger… but traveled to Jerusalem to go to the Temple, then traveled back to Bethlehem to hang out in a manger before having to flee to Egypt because of Harod… sure.

That's an awful lot of supposition with no agreement.
