The Infancy Gospels of James and Thomas

Two infancy gospels reflect the early Christian interest in how Jesus was born and raised. The Infancy Gospel of James narrates the story of Mary, mother of Jesus -- her birth, infancy and childhood, up to her pregnancy. The Infancy Gospel of Thomas recounts stories depicting Jesus as a petulant child prodigy. Featuring the acclaimed Scholars Version translation side-by-side with the original Greek texts, this dual language edition makes the infancy gospels readily available and truly accessible for the first time ever. - Publisher.

First sentence: Advent candles and Christmas cards, nativity scenes and Christmas carols, gift giving and Christmas trees, holiday travel and Christmas decorations-these and many more traditions make the celebration of the birth of Christ the richest and perhaps the most meaningful time of the Christian year.
