In The First Christmas, scholars Marcus J. Borg and John Dominic Crossan collaborate to uncover the historical influences that have shaped contemporary interpretations of the nativity stories in the gospels of Matthew and Luke. They aim to strip away two millennia of sentimentalism surrounding this iconic narrative, offering fresh insights and a deeper understanding of its significance in both first-century and modern contexts. By exploring the question, "What do these stories mean?" they reveal a rich and complex portrayal of the Christmas story that challenges common perceptions.
