  • Notes & Queries
    NOTES & QUERIES ON THE STATUS OF THE CHRISTMAS CRIB IN THE UNITED STATES Franz H. Mueller No typical American Chrismas crib exists, nor is there an ideal Italian, Austrian, French or .German creche type. America's ethnic pluralism has resulted in a variety of three-dimensional representations of the Nativity, each type reflecting, at least to a degree, the national origins of those who made and used them. A scientifically satis- factory account of the present state of Nativity art in the United States would require a greater expenditure of time, effort and money than this writer can afford. The readers will, therefore, have to content themselves with something of a quasi-geographic survey which offers repre- sentative examples from various parts of this country. We will start our survey in Maine where we find a collector, exhibitor, and distributor of Provencal santons, French-born Helene P. Carter of Topsham. She spends most of her time in the Provence, ferreting out and buying up good-quality santons. She has written an informative article called "What is a Santon?", and distributed it among interested audiences. Mrs. Carter speaks in schools. libraries, and museums on the origins, production tech- nique, and significance of those criche figures. The Criquet Shop, a store in Damariscotte, ME, sells a great variety of imported santons, largely those made by the santonnier (santon-maker) M. Carbonel. The shop's illus- trated catalogue with colored figures of some 122 figurines models, landscapes, etc., is fun to examine. In the New England of the Puritans, the celebration of Christmas uds abhorred as popish and was legally for- bidden.

  • The Local Landscape Architect
    JEFF STAPLETON, THE LOCAL LANDSCAPE ARCHITECT PLANTS FOR A MERRY CHRISTMAS With the writing of this column we are fast approaching Christmas…the second holiest day on the Christian calendar when we celebrate the birth of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. Many of our Christmas traditions stretch back over centuries, even millennia, including our use of plants. So, in honor of the season, this extended holiday column is going to focus on some plants that we commonly find in our Christmas decorations…indoors and out. Now, as with all lists, I will assuredly leave out plants with a rich Christmas tradition of their own. That being said, it’s hard to imagine Christmas without seeing the plants below in some shape or fashion, so let’s get started. Boxwood: “American” boxwood (Buxus sempervirens) first made its way to Virginia soon after British colonization, when “Virginia” encompassed all of North America. It is no wonder boxwood is so prominent during the holiday then, considering its Christmas tradition in the Commonwealth stretches back four centuries. Boxwood has numerous uses for Christmas decorations inside the home and in the landscape. Pyramidal cultivars or clipped topiaries make wonderful live Christmas trees in the garden, and the sturdy foliage of Buxus easily supports small lights. Boxwoods readily supply greenery for fresh Christmas decorations, including garlands and wreaths, but my favorite boxwood decorations for Christmas are kissing balls and table trees. Table trees are, well, small Christmas trees constructed of boxwood clippings. Kissing balls are small spheres formed out of boxwood leaves and typically hung over interior archways or openings.

  • Begotten Or Made?
    Begotten or made? The Origin of the Son of God vs the Incarnation of “God the Son” Ray Brown, Birth of the Messiah: “In Luke 1.35 the begetting is not quasi-sexual as if God takes the place of a male principle in mating with Mary. There is more of a connotation to creativity. Mary is not barren, and in her case the child does not come into existence because God cooperates with the husband’s generative action and removes the sterility. Rather, Mary is a virgin who has not known man, and therefore the child is totally God’s work—a new creation…And this double expression of God’s activity makes it clear that when the child is called “holy” and “Son of God”, these designations are true to what he is and to his origins.” Fitzmyer, The Gospel According to Luke: “The idea of Incarnation is foreign to Luke, as to Matthew. [In Luke 1.35] ‘Therefore (dio kai)’ expresses a causal connection between the virginal conception and the divine Sonship. It is another indication that Luke does not have a notion of Jesus’ preexistence.” J.D.G. Dunn, Christology in the Making: “In his birth narrative Luke is more explicit than Matthew in his assertion of Jesus’ divine sonship from birth [1.32-35; 2.49]…it is sufficiently clear that it is a begetting, a becoming, which is in view, the coming into existence of one who will be called and will in fact be the Son of God—not by the transition of a preexistent being to become the soul of a human baby or the metamorphosis of a divine Being into a human fetus…Similarly in Acts there is no sign of any Christology of pre-existence.” D.

    Christmas Questions Most People Ask Part 1 12/22/2019 ‐ Dan Fisher Christmas questions most people ask 1 1. How important is the virgin birth? Is 7:14 Therefore the Lord Himself will give you a sign: Behold, the virgin shall conceive and bear a Son, and shall call His name Immanuel. Mt 1:14 … After His mother Mary was betrothed to Joseph, before they came together, she was found with child of the Holy Spirit. Lk 1:26-27 Now in the sixth month the angel Gabriel was sent by God to a city of Galilee named Nazareth, 27 to a virgin betrothed to a man whose name was Joseph, of the house of David. The virgin’s name was Mary. 2 1 Christmas Questions Most People Ask Part 1 12/22/2019 ‐ Dan Fisher Rom 5:12 “Therefore, just as through one man sin entered the world, and death through sin, and thus death spread to all men, because all sinned” Jn 14:30 “I will no longer talk much with you, for the ruler of this world is coming, and he has nothing in Me.” Heb 2:14 Inasmuch then as the children have partaken of flesh and blood, He Himself likewise shared in the same, that through death He might destroy him who had the power of death, that is, the devil, Heb 4:15 “For we do not have a High Priest who cannot sympathize with our weaknesses, but was in all points tempted as we are, yet without sin.” 3 2. Did Mary give birth to God making her the “Mother of God?” Jn 1:14 And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, and we beheld His glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father, full of grace and truth.
