  1. Many travelers are pushing into the little highland town of Bethlehem. It is almost dark and all are pressing ahead, anxious to find shelter for the night. Joseph and Mary of Nazareth come wearily to the end of their long journey, but no room is left for them in the inn.

  3. The Meaning Of Christmas Through the Eyes of the Innkeeper. The Christmas story in Luke 2 holds a special place in many hearts. It is one of the most quoted and read accounts in the Bible, especially around Christmas time. Our Father in Heaven loves us so much he provided a Savior for us.

    • Dress Code. Posing at the entrance of The Inn at Little Washington Restaurant. There is NO dress code. You wear what is comfortable. The staff is extremely friendly, and there is no judgment.
    • Hotel Options Other Than the Inn. The White Moose Inn in Washington, Virginia. I would strongly advise spending the night if you are dining at The Inn at Little Washington Restaurant.
    • Dreams Can Happen. Signed Patrick O’Connell’s Refined American Cuisine Cookbook. Alright, I realize the title of point #3 is a little corny. Let me explain.
    • There is a Kitchen Table Experience. How did I not know about this before? I didn’t find out about this experience until well after our dinner at The Inn at Little Washington Restaurant.

    I once heard a well-meaning Christian say something like, “Why study all this history stuff? The Bible says it. I believe, it. That’s the end of it!” But what about this? Reading what “the Bible says” is one thing. Getting “what the Bible means” is another. Case in point: Most people summarize the Christmas story like this: “Joseph & Mary went to B...

    The Greek word, kataluma, means “lodging place” and it’s usually translated “upper room” not “inn” (1). It can refer to a room of a house where out of town guests could spend the night or even just a dining room. For example, in Mark 14:14, Jesus celebrated Passover with his disciples in an “upper room” (same word used here). This is why the 2010 N...

    Joseph went to a little town called Bethlehem—his ancestral home—for the census because that’s where his family was from. We hear so much about this place around Christmastime that it’s hard to imagine that Bethlehem didn’t even show up on most ancient maps. In the 21st century, when we hear “inn,” we think of a hotel, like the Holiday Inn. But the...

    Joseph wouldn’t have been turned away from the ancestral home even if there was no room, especially since Mary was pregnant. This would be a big no-no in Jewish culture. If there wasn’t any space in the upper room, Mary probably gave birth in the “garage area,” where people kept their animals. Also, a manger isn’t a barn. It’s a feeding trough that...

    I created a floorplan graphic of a typical Palestinian peasant home to show you what I mean. But that’s just one possible layout. Also, here’s an example of an actual stone manger(discovered in Megiddo) you might find helpful. Click on the thumbnail images below and take a closer look. Outside the Bible, tradition suggests that Jesus was born in a ...

    It might seem like there’s nothing special about a stable, a cave, or whatever the lower part of a house looked like. But that’s an interesting point in all this:Luke and the other gospel writers resisted the temptation to make the physical location of Jesus’ birth better than it really was. It seems totally unexpected to see the Jewish Messiah bor...

  6. Dec 14, 2015 · This Christmas, let’s learn a lesson from our Innkeeper friend. Let’s make time and space for Jesus; let’s show the love of Christ to those who do not know Him. Because, after all, He is the reason for the season. How are you being intentional about making room and time for Jesus this Christmas?
