The Way it Was is a look at the evangelists' account of the birth of Jesus, to light up the background of what they've written, and to try to see more closely the personalities they glance at, and who play so large a part in the events surrounding the birth. It's no more than an attempt at an exposition of the familiar Gospel text we hold in our hands, in the hope of feeling a way through the mists and notions that cloud the evangelists' record, to see the birth the way it was.
