Luke's version has the disciples speaking in the darkness. Nicoll compares these versions: In the one representation the whispering stage has its place in the history of the kingdom; in the latter it is conceived as illegitimate and futile.

Mark and Q account for about 64% of Luke; the remaining material, known as the L source, is of unknown origin and date. [31] Most Q and L-source material is grouped in two clusters, Luke 6:17–8:3 and 9:51–18:14, and L-source material forms the first two sections of the gospel (the preface and infancy and childhood narratives).

The statement in Matthew 1:21 "you shall call his name Jesus, for he will save his people from their sins" associates salvific attributes to the name Jesus in Christian theology. [2] [3] [12] [13]
After this, a great many more angels appear, praising God with the words "Glory to God in the highest heaven, and on earth peace to those on whom his favor rests." [ 2 ] Deciding to do as the angel had said, the shepherds travel to Bethlehem, and find Mary and Joseph and the infant Jesus lying in the manger , just as they had been told.
"Thou shalt not take the name of the L ORD thy God in vain" (KJV; also "You shall not make wrongful use of the name of the Lord your God" and variants, Biblical Hebrew: לֹא תִשָּׂא אֶת-שֵׁם-יהוה אֱלֹהֶיךָ לַשָּׁוְא, romanized: Lōʾ t̲iśśāʾ ʾet̲-šēm-YHWH ʾĕlōhēḵā laššāwəʾ ) is the second or third (depending on numbering) of God's ...
