Sejarah Perayaan Natal

      Hari Raya Kelahiran Tuhan Yesus sudah dekat, sebuah hari dimana kita bisa pergi ke gereja dan merayakan Natal bersama keluarga. Namun, selama ini apakah kalian pernah bertanya-tanya kenapa sih Natal itu harus tanggal 25 Desember? Atau Kenapa sih Natal identik dengan Pohon Cemara? Jika iya, berikut ulasannya.

     Tanggal 25 Desember ditetapkan sebagai Hari Natal sejak tahun 221 oleh Sextus Julius Africanus. Sebelumnya, Hari Raya Natal dirayakan berbeda-beda mulai dari 6 Januari, 20 April, dan lain sebagainya sehingga pada tahun 250 Kaisar Konstantinus dan Paus Julius I memutuskan untuk menetapkan tanggal tetap untuk Hari Raya Natal yaitu tanggal 25 Desember. 

    Tak berhenti disitu, perdebatan mengenai tanggal pasti hari kelahiran Yesus masih terjadi. Ada yang menyatakan bahwa pada hari itu, di Bethlehem dan sekitarnya sedang mengalami musim dingin sehingga tidak mungkin ada gembala yang menjaga domba-dombanya di padang rumput. Beberapa orang menyatakan bahwa 25 Desember adalah hari pemujaan kaum pagan terhadap dewa matahari, dan diambil sebagai hari Natal karena ingin menyatakan bahwa Yesus adalah sang Terang yang datang kedunia. 

     Dari segi yang lain, Natal dihubungkan dengan hari Maria diberi kabar sukacita yaitu 25 Maret ditambah 9 bulan dan menunjukkan tanggal 25 Desember. Beberapa juga menyatakan bahwa pada jaman dahulu masih belum terdapat kendaraan seperti sekarang sehingga mungkin-mungkin saja bahwa para majus dari Timur serta para gembala berasal dari tempat yang jauh dan menerima kabar tersebut beberapa minggu/bulan sebelum kelahiran Yesus sehingga jika dihitung dengan watu perjalanan dengan berjalan kaki atau menaiki onta, maka mereka akan tiba tepat disaat malam kelahiran Yesus.

     Sekarang tentang tradisi memasang dan menghias pohon cemara. Banyak pula tanggapan dan opini orang mengenai asal usul tradisi tersebut, tetapi sebagian besar mengatakan bahwa tradisi tersebut berasal dari Jerman. Pohon cemara dipilih sebagai pohon yang melambangkan kekekalan sebab diantara pohon lain yang daunnya berguguran saat musim dingin, hanya pohon cemara yang daunnya tetap ada sepanjang tahun, Lampu-lampu yang bercahaya melambangkan Kristus yang adalah “Terang” bagi dunia. 

     Dibalik semuanya itu, yang terpenting bukanlah tepatnya tanggal peringatan natal atau ada dan tidaknya pohon natal melainkan inti dan makna Natal agar dapat diwujudkan dari hari ke hari. Sekian artikel ini dan selamat merayakan Hari Kelahiran Yesus Kristus, semoga damai natal dan berkat-Nya selalu menyertai kita terutama pada Hari Natal ini.

Story of the Saint: Santo Yohanes dari Salib


     Yohanes dari Salib lahir di Spanyol pada tahun 1542 dari keluarga miskin. Ia menjadi pelayan di rumah sakit Medina. Pada usia 21 tahun ia diterima sebagai anggota awam biara Karmelit.

Christmas Playlist #40: Winter Wonderland


WINTER WONDERLAND

Sleigh bells ring
Are you listening
In the lane
Snow is glistening
A beautiful sight,
We're happy tonight
Walking in a winter wonderland

Gone away, is the blue bird
Here to stay, is the new bird
He sings a love song,
As we go along
Walking in a winter wonderland

In the meadow we can build a snowman
And pretend that he is Parson Brown
He'll say are you married
We'll say No Man
But you can do the job
When you're in town

Later on
We'll conspire
As we dream by the fire
To face unafraid
The plans that we've made
Walking in a winter wonderland

Sleigh bells ringing
Are you listening
In the lane
Snow is glistening
A beautiful sight,
We're happy tonight
Walking in a winter wonderland

Gone away, is the blue bird
Here to stay, is the new bird
He sings a love a song
As we go along
Walking in a winter wonderland

In the meadow we can build a snowman
And pretend that he's a circus clown
We'll have lots of fun with Mr. Snowman
Until the other kiddies knock them down

When it snows
ain't it thrilling
Though your nose, gets a chilling
We'll frolic and play, the Eskimo way
Walking in a winter wonderland

Christmas Playlist #39: White Christmas


WHITE CHRISTMAS

I'm dreaming of a white Christmas 
Just like the ones I used to know 
Where the treetops glisten, 
and children listen 
To hear sleigh bells in the snow

I'm dreaming of a white Christmas 
With every Christmas card I write 
May your days be merry and bright 
And may all your Christmases be white 

I'm dreaming of a white Christmas 
With every Christmas card I write 
May your days be merry and bright 
And may all your Christmases be white

Christmas Playlist #38: The First Noel


THE FIRST NOEL

The First Noel, the Angels did say
Was to certain poor shepherds in fields as they lay
In fields where they lay keeping their sheep
On a cold winter's night that was so deep.
Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel
Born is the King of Israel!

They looked up and saw a star
Shining in the East beyond them far
And to the earth it gave great light
And so it continued both day and night.
Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel
Born is the King of Israel!

And by the light of that same star
Three Wise men came from country far
To seek for a King was their intent
And to follow the star wherever it went.
Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel
Born is the King of Israel!

This star drew nigh to the northwest
O'er Bethlehem it took its rest
And there it did both Pause and stay
Right o'er the place where Jesus lay.
Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel
Born is the King of Israel!

Then entered in those Wise men three
Full reverently upon their knee
And offered there in His presence
Their gold and myrrh and frankincense.
Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel
Born is the King of Israel! 

Then let us all with one accord
Sing praises to our heavenly Lord
That hath made Heaven and earth of nought
And with his blood mankind has bought.
Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel
Born is the King of Israel!

Christmas Playlist #37: S'lamat, S'lamat Datang


  S'LAMAT, S'LAMAT DATANG

S'lamat, s'lamat datang, Yesus, Tuhanku!
betapa dari jauh kunjungan-Mu!
Dari surga tinggi Dikau datang bagiku,
walaupun sekarang tak tampak wujud-Mu.
Ya Tuhanku!

Aku bergembira atas datang-Mu, 
dan aku menynyikan tembang merdu.
Dikau dilahirkan pada malam yang kudus
oleh dara murni yang sungguh mulia.
Ya Tuhanku!

Para penggembala mendengar kabar:
Sang Kristus sudah lahir di dunia, 
lalu bergegas menuju kota Bethlehem,
dan mereka lihat Sang Bayi Penebus.
Ya Tuhanku!

Para majus datang untuk menyembah
Sang Bayi di palungan, Sang Penebus,
dari timur jauh datanglah ke Bethlehem
dan mempersembahkan mas, kemenyan, dan mur.
Ya Tuhanku!

City sidewalks, busy sidewalks.
Dressed in holiday style
In the air
There's a feeling

Children laughing
People passing
Meeting smile after smile

Ring-a-ling, hear them sing
Soon it will be Christmas day

Strings of street lights
Even stop lights
Blink a bright red and green
As the shoppers rush
home with their treasures

Hear the snow crunch
See the kids bunch
This is Santa's big scene
And above all this bustle
You'll hear

Ring-a-ling, hear them sing
Soon it will be Christmas day

RUDOLPH THE RED NOSED REINDEER

Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer
Had a very shiny nose
And if you ever saw it

All of the other reindeer

Christmas Playlist #31: O Little Town of Bethlehem


O LITTLE TOWN OF BETHLEHEM

O little town of Bethlehem
How still we see thee lie
Above thy deep and dreamless sleep
The silent stars go by
Yet in thy dark streets shineth
The everlasting Light
The hopes and fears of all the years
Are met in thee tonight

For Christ is born of Mary
And gathered all above
While mortals sleep, the angels keep
Their watch of wondering love
O morning stars together
Proclaim the holy birth
And praises sing to God the King
And Peace to men on earth

How silently, how silently
The wondrous gift is given!
So God imparts to human hearts
The blessings of His heaven.
No ear may hear His coming,
But in this world of sin,
Where meek souls will receive him still,
The dear Christ enters in.

O holy Child of Bethlehem
Descend to us, we pray
Cast out our sin and enter in
Be born to us today
We hear the Christmas angels
The great glad tidings tell
O come to us, abide with us
Our Lord Emmanuel

    Berikut adalah contoh lagu dari O Little Town of Bethlehem

Christmas Playlist #30: O Holy Night


O HOLY NIGHT

O holy night!
The stars are brightly shining
It is the night of the dear Savior's birth!
Long lay the world in sin and error pining
Till he appear and the soul felt its worth.
A thrill of hope the weary soul rejoices
For yonder breaks a new and glorious morn!

Fall on your knees
Oh hear the angel voices
Oh night divine
Oh night when Christ was born
Oh night divine
Oh night divine

Led by the light of Faith serenely beaming
With glowing hearts by His cradle we stand
So led by light of a star sweetly gleaming
Here come the wise men from Orient land
The King of Kings lay thus in lowly manger
In all our trials born to be our friend

Fall on your knees
Oh hear the angel voices
Oh night divine
Oh night when Christ was born
Oh night divine
Oh night divine

Truly He taught us to love one another
His law is love and His gospel is peace
Chains shall He break for the slave is our brother
And in His name all oppression shall cease
Sweet hymns of joy in grateful chorus raise we,
Let all within us praise His holy name

Fall on your knees
Oh hear the angel voices
Oh night divine
Oh night when Christ was born
Oh night divine
Oh night divine

Mary did you know that your baby boy will one day walk on water?

Did you know that your baby boy has come to make you new?
This child that you've delivered, will soon deliver you.

Mary did you know that your baby boy will give sight to a blind man?
Mary did you know that your baby boy will calm the storm with his hand?
Did you know that your baby boy has walked where angels trod?
And when you kiss your little baby, you kissed the face of God.

Mary did you know (x8)

The blind will see, the deaf will hear, the dead will live again.
The lame will leap, the dumb will speak, the praises of the lamb.

Mary did you know that your baby boy is Lord of all creation?
Mary did you know that your baby boy will one day rule the nations?
Did you know that your baby boy is heaven's perfect Lamb?
That sleeping child you're holding is the great I am

Christmas Playlist #24: Mary's Boy Child


MARY'S BOY CHILD

Long time ago in Bethlehem
So the Holy Bible say
Mary's boy child, Jesus Christ
Was born on Christmas Day.

Hark now hear the angels sing
A king was born today
And man will live for evermore
Because of Christmas Day.

While shepherds watched their flock by
night,
They saw a bright new shining star
they hear a choir sing song
The music seemed to come from afar.

Hark, now hear the angels sing,
A king was born today,
And man will live for evermore,
Because of Christmas Day.

Joseph and his wife, Mary,
Came to Bethlehem that night,
They found no place to bear her child,
Not a single room was in sight.

Hark now hear the angels sing,
A king was born today,
And man will live for evermore
Because of Christmas Day

By and by they find a little nook
In a stable all forlorn,
And in a manger cold and dark,
Mary's little boy was born.

Hark, now hear the angels sing,
A king was born today,
And man will live for evermore,
Because of Christmas Day.

Sang Sabda kini menjelma menjadi manusia.
Lekaslah berjumpa dengan Tuhan, Almasih yang mulia.

Gembala pergilah cepat-cepat menuju Bethlehem.
Pergilah mencari di Bethlehem Sang Raja Israel.
Yang Mahatinggi dan kekal berkunjung di dunia.
Lekaslah mencari Allah kekal yang datang di dunia.

Gembala pergilah cepat-cepat menuju Bethlehem.
Pergilah mencari di Bethlehem Sang Raja Israel.

Yang Mahakaya dan mulia berhamba di dunia.
Lekaslah mencari Allah mulia pelayan dunia.

Gembala pergilah cepat-cepat menuju Bethlehem.
Pergilah mencari di Bethlehem Sang Raja Israel.

Christmas Playlist #11: Gembala Berjaga di Padang


GEMBALA BERJAGA DI PADANG

Gembala berjaga di padang dimalam sepi nan kelam.
Menjaga kawanan dombanya dengan cermat dan setia.
Sekonyong terpancar cahaya menghalau bayangan kelam.
Tampaklah malaikat gemilang membawakan kabar senang.

Janglah kau takut, gembala, kubawa berita besar.
Lahirlah bagimu Penebus, di Bethlehem, kota Daud.
Dan muncul ribuan malaikat di langit bermadah merdu:
Terpujilah Allah di surga, serta damailah umat-Nya.

O Yesusku yang baru lahir, ku ingin dekat pada-Mu.
Kau rela tinggal kan surga-Mu agar s'lamatlah jiwaku.
terimalah kini hatiku pembalasan kasihmu mesra.
Sudilah kobarkan selalu percik kasih di hatiku.

Christmas Playlist #10: Frosty the Snowman


FROSTY THE SNOWMAN

Frosty the Snowman, was a jolly happy soul,
With a corn cob pipe and a button nose, and two eyes made of coal.

Frosty the Snowman, is a fairytale, they say.
He was made of snow, but the children know he came to life one day.

There must have been some magic in that old silk hat they found,

For when they placed it on his head, he began to dance around!

Oh, Frosty, the Snowman, was alive as he could be;
and the children say he could laugh and play,
just the same as you and me.

Thumpety thump, thump, thumpety thump, thump,
look at Frosty go.

Thumpety thump, thump, thumpety thump, thump,
over the hills of snow.

Frosty the Snowman, knew the sun was hot that day,
so he said, "Let's run, and we'll have some fun now, before I melt away."

Down to the village, with a broomstick in his hand,
Running here and there, all around the square,
sayin', "Catch me if you can."

He led them down the streets of town, right to the traffic cop;

and only paused a moment, when he heard him holler, "Stop!"

For Frosty, the Snowman, had to hurry on his way,
But he waved goodbye, sayin' "Don't cry, I'll be back again some day."

Christmas Playlist #5: Blue Christmas


BLUE CHRISTMAS

I'll have a Blue Christmas without you
I'll be so blue just thinking about you
Decorations of red on a green Christmas tree
Won't be the same dear, if you're not here with me

And when those blue snowflakes start falling
That's when those blue memories start calling
You'll be doin' all right, with your Christmas of white
But I'll have a blue, blue blue blue Christmas

You'll be doin' all right, with your Christmas of white,
But I'll have a blue, blue, blue blue Christmas

Nunc et in hora, in hora mortis nostrae
Amen, amen.


Christmas Playlist #3: Auld Lang Syne


AULD LANG SYNE

Should auld acquaintance be forgot, 
And never brought to mind? 
Should auld acquaintance be forgot, 
And days o’ lang syne!

For auld lang syne, my dear 
For auld lang syne, 
We’ll take a cup o’ kindness yet 
For auld lang syne!

We twa hae run about the braes, 
And pu’d the gowans fine, 
But we’ve wander’d mony a weary foot 
Sin’ auld lang syne.

We twa hae paidl’t in the burn 
Frae morning sun till dine, 
But seas between us braid hae roar’d 
Sin’ auld lang syne.

And there’s a hand, my trusty fiere, 
And gie’s a hand o’ thine, 
And we’ll tak a right guid willie-waught 
For auld lang syne!

And surely ye’ll be your pint’ stoup, 
And surely I’ll be mine! 
And we’ll tak a cup o’ kindness yet 
For auld lang syne!
