| Summary |
"The Boyhood of Jesus" by Anonymous is a children's religious storybook written in the early 20th century. The book illustrates the early life of Jesus Christ, focusing on significant events that occurred during his boyhood, such as his birth, the visit of the shepherds and wise men, and his time in the temple. It aims to impart moral lessons and teachings about Jesus' character and the love he brought to the world. In "The Boyhood of Jesus," the narrative begins with the announcement of Jesus’ birth, emphasizing the significance of Christmas and the joy it brings to believers. The story recounts Mary and Joseph's journey to Bethlehem, the circumstances of Jesus' birth in a stable, and the subsequent visit from shepherds and wise men who come to honor the newborn King. It highlights Jesus' early demonstrations of wisdom and understanding, including a notable episode in the temple at twelve years old where he converses with teachers of the law. The book paints a picture of Jesus not only as the Son of God but as a loving and obedient child, encouraging readers, especially young ones, to emulate his qualities of kindness and reverence.
