The birth and burial of Jesus were in caves.
He had no house to be born or to die.
The public and Jewish authorities rejected Jesus at his birth and death.
Mary wrapped him in swaddling clothes at his birth. Joseph of Arimathea and Nicodemus wrapped him in a burial cloth during his entombment.
His mother Mary had hardships at his birth and death.
REFLECTION
Jesus taught us throughout his life on earth how to humble ourselves to follow him. The values and lifestyle of Jesus and his followers differ from that of the world. Let us give importance to the spiritual values and achievements than the worldly ambitions.
