Lucas 2

Shepherds go and report

15 So when the angels went away from them into the sky the men, the shepherds, said to one another, "Hey, let’s go to Bethlehem and see this event that has taken place, that the Lord made known to us!" 16 So they went in a hurry and located both Mary and Joseph, and the Baby lying in the manger. 17 And having seen they spread an exact account of the saying that had been spoken to them concerning this Child. 18 All who heard marveled at the things told them by the shepherds.*Since the shepherds lived in that town, presumably, they would certainly tell their families and friends; in short order the whole town had heard the news. In all probability, the very next day someone offered Joseph a house to use.
