When Jesus was forty days old, Mary and Joseph went to Jerusalem to present him at the Temple, as commanded by the Law of Moses. There was Simeon, a righteous and devout man to whom the Holy Spirit had revealed that he would not die without first seeing the Lord's Messiah. Simeon took the child in his arms and praised God, saying: - Now, Lord, according to your word, you can let your servant depart in peace, for my eyes have seen the Savior, whom you have prepared in the presence of all peoples, A Light for revelation to the Gentiles, and the glory of your people, Israel. Mary and Joseph were amazed at what was said about Him. Simeon blessed Mary, his mother, and told her that she would suffer greatly because of this child.
