And when they had seen it, they made known abroad the saying which was told them concerning this child.
After the shepherds saw everything just like the angel had told them, they couldn't keep quiet about it. They went everywhere telling people about what they'd been told concerning this baby.
When you witness something amazing, you can't help but share it with everyone.
📚 Historical Context
In the biblical account of Jesus' birth, shepherds in the fields near Bethlehem were visited by angels who announced the arrival of the Messiah, urging them to go and see the child. Upon finding Mary, Joseph, and the baby Jesus just as the angels had described, the shepherds were filled with wonder and immediately began to spread the news. This verse captures their role as the first witnesses to proclaim the Savior's birth in a humble, everyday setting.
