All roads lead to Bethlehem as God fulfills a prophecy and a promise to mankind and a Child is born in a stable beneath a shining star. On a sure-footed donkey, Mary and Joseph make the difficult journey from Nazareth, where Mary will give birth to her son. The Three Magi ride their camels out of distant lands to worship the newborn king. From Jerusalem, mad King Herod sends his Roman legionnaires, mounted on fine horses, to find the Child he fears. And at the bidding of the Angel of the Lord, humble shepherds make their way on foot from their fields and flocks to pay homage to The Christ Child. "'The Nativity' is one in a series of Bible episodes seen through the eyes of three young visitors from the 20th Century.
