“Apparently people don't like the truth, but I do like it; I like it because it upsets a lot of people. If you show them enough times that their arguments are bullshit, then maybe just once, one of them will say, 'Oh! Wait a minute - I was wrong.' I live for that happening. Rare, I assure you” ― Lemmy Kilmister

Hihhulitekstejä paimenista
At that time, sheep farmers were seen as low or little value by other
people. The sheep that they bred would have probably been used as sacrifice
animals in the temple in near-by Jerusalem.
Being curious as to what the angels meant, they went down into
Bethlehem, maybe leaving a shepherd or two behind to keep guard on the sheep.
The shepherds probably found Joseph, Mary and Jesus with the help of local
women, running errands in the busy town, that had heard of the birth of a new
baby. When they had found and told Mary and Joseph what had happened to them,
it says that 'The shepherds returned, glorifying and praising God for all the
things they had heard and seen, which were just as they had been told.' The
people they told probably weren't just the people they saw on the way back to
hills, but friends and relatives in Bethlehem and Jerusalem and the people they
met in the temple when they took their sheep to be sold.
And an angel of the Lord stood by them [He stood upon the
earth at their side, and did not float above them in the heavens, as he is
usually pictured. His standing upon the earth shows a fuller fellowship and
sympathy with men--comp.
We can trust that God had a specific purpose for this shepherd audience,
and the work they performed suggests the reason. These men who watched the
sheep meant for the slaughter received a divine message about the ultimate Lamb
who would take away the sins of the world through His death and resurrection.
The lack of money precludes no one from spiritual privileges. The things
of God's kingdom are often hidden from the great and noble and revealed to the
poor. The busy labor of the hands need not prevent someone from being favored
with special visit from God. Moses was keeping sheep, Gideon was threshing
wheat, Elisha was ploughing, when they were each honored by direct calls and
revelations from God. Let us resist the suggestion of Satan that religion is
not for the working man. The weak of the world are often called before the
mighty. The last are often first, and the first last.
God chose a stable so no innkeeper could boast, "He chose the
comfort of my inn!" God chose a manger so that no wood worker could boast,
"He chose the craftsmanship of my bed!"
The number of shepherds shown varies also, though three is typical in the West; one or more dogs may be included
