And there were shepherds living out in the fields nearby, keeping watch over their flocks at night. An angel of the Lord appeared to them, and the glory of the Lord shone around them, and they were terrified.
Luke 2:8-9
- Who appeared to the shepherds?
- How did the shepherds feel when they saw the angel?
Shepherds were often smelly as they lived with their sheep. Most people didn’t want to be friends with them and they weren’t very important. But that night, an angel appeared to them.
- Who would you expect an important angel to appear to? Why do you think God sent an angel to some shepherds?
