v1 This Caesare Augustus was Octavian (63BC - 14AD) great nephew of Julius Caesar rule in triumvirate with Antony and Lepidus following Julius Caesar's death Was known for his administrative accomplishements like this census that was conducted for the purpose of Roman taxation. Jewish custom required Jews to return their ancestral cities for a census like this one. Luke is specifically pointing out God's ability to use a Roman emperor to accomplish his purposes v2 This is a further explanation of the census using the word "registration". Quirinius was a notable administrator and soldier v3 v4 This is somewhat an unusual reference to Bethlehem as the city of David Usually Zion/Jerusalem is considered the city of David It is however supported by the OT in 1Sm 17:12, 58 Note the focus here is on Jesus's connection to the Davidic line through Joseph. It is also possible that Mary is of the Davidic line though her relation to Elizabeth also shows her Levitical heritage. See Mch 5,1-2 for the Messianic link to Bethlehem (also Mt 2,6 v5 ἐμνηστευμένῃ continues to suggest a state of engagement rather than marriage, preserving the doctrine of the virgin birth Some have argued that this trip would be inappropriate for an engaged couple. Others have argued against such a view noting that Mary and Joseph would not want to be separated so close to the impending birth. v6 This is an incredibly brief account of the birth of Jesus. Absent are: a search for a place as if the manger was the last an angry, rude innkeeper an allusion to the parent's poverty v7 πρωτότοκον - instead of taking theological connontations, this term prepares the reader for 2,23-24 and generally alludes to Jesus's place as first born in the family. both ἐσπαργάνωσεν and φάτνῃ prepare for the shepherds' recognition of this child. 2,12 καταλύματι is not the word used for a formal inn. Rather it refers to a more informal lodging like the bottom floor of a private residence or a public shelter. The shelter used by Joseph and Mary was likely either a stable next to a dwelling or a cave—both of which were used to keep animals and would have mangers/cattle stalls ( φάτνῃ) The traditional story, arising from early church history, suggests that Jesus was born in a cave. This is neither proven nor refuted from the text. Notes drawn from: Darrell Bock, Luke 1:1-9:50 (Grand Rapids: Baker, 2008).
