Yesterday I was in Jerusalem uncovering a story about a chicken who laid golden eggs but it was all a lie.  I was going to the temple to say my prayers for a safe walk home when I saw a young couple approaching the altar.

I found out later that their names were Mary and Joseph, and they had a son named Jesus who was at his purification ceremony.  

When the well known prophet Simeon approached them and took the baby in his arms and said, "this is the saviour of the world"  and alas said to Mary, "he will cause you great pain".  Anna another well known prophet was there and agreed.
