Last week, we followed Joseph and Mary as they took the infant Jesus to the temple to be dedicated. There, they were met by Simeon, an elderly man who had been promised - by God - that he would not die before he beheld the Messiah. As we study today's scripture, Joseph Mary and Simeon are now joined by Anna, a prophetess of God, who also had waited for many years for the coming of Israel's Messiah. We'll learn what Anna declared as she joined them!
