He was Born at a Young Age

Luke 2:36-40

So, He grew up, became strong, was filled with wisdom and the favour of God.  Nearly a whole lifetime summed up in one sentence.  Nothing like cutting to the chase.  I suppose there wasn't much of consequence to mention.  There was more than enough stuff to write about from His ministry years, that there wasn't much point adding back story.

Still, it would be nice to know.  There must have been something interesting going on?  Yes, interesting, but maybe not important.  We're left with the important parts.  And isn't that like God?  He gives us the important bits and leaves the rest for us to work out.
