GOSPEL READING: LUKE 2:22-40
Jesus is presented in the temple as the law required. Mary and Joseph were faithful in observing the demands of the law. This is what they taught Jesus to do. Jesus himself later on fulfilled the law and expected his disciples also to observe the law. He objected only when the law went against the person. The person was more important for Jesus than the law. Law itself was not anything negative.
Simeon and Anna were the temple ministers and they welcomed Jesus. Indirectly the author was trying to say that the temple or the temple ministers had anything against Jesus. In fact they prophesied about Jesus saying that his birth was the fulfilment of the expectation of the people of Israel and his birth was the fulfilment of the promise of God. It is a double fulfilment.
