12 Days of Christmas - Day 2

On the second day of Christmas my true love gave to me, two turtle doves that remind us that our Bible is broken into two parts the Old and New Testament. The doves are symbols too. In the Old Testament, before Jesus’ death on the cross, it is acceptable for the poor to sacrifice two turtledoves as an offering that helps to bring peace with God. It is believed that when Mary and Joseph come to Jerusalem after Christ’s birth, they sacrificed two of these birds.
