Christmas, The Bible Version
This blog will discuss the fourteenth play from the York cycle, The Tile Thatchers' Play: The Nativity. The play discusses Mary and Joseph's eventual settling into the manger at an Inn in Bethlehem. Both Mary and Joseph thank God for the miracle to come and pray for his protection and help in dealing with the baby. Mary gives birth to baby Jesus while Joseph is away, but when he returns, they rejoice together and lay down the sweet, gentle baby among the animals surrounding and obviously praising him.
