\"\"
\nThis Christmas, I ponder a <\/span><\/span>Nativity <\/span><\/span>paint<\/span><\/span>ed<\/span><\/span> over <\/span><\/span>six<\/span><\/span>hundred years ago by <\/span><\/span>the Westphalian artist <\/span><\/span>Conrad <\/span><\/span>von <\/span><\/span>Soest<\/span><\/span> (+ ca. 1422)<\/span><\/span>.<\/span><\/span> There may be more stunning images to think and pray with this Christmas, but <\/span><\/span>Conrad\u2019s painting <\/span><\/span>holds a unique detail that captures <\/span><\/span>a <\/span><\/span>truth woven <\/span><\/span>deeply <\/span><\/span>into <\/span><\/span>today\u2019s <\/span><\/span>feast<\/span><\/span>.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

This unique detail comes in the depiction of <\/span><\/span>St. <\/span><\/span>Joseph<\/span><\/span> by Conrad von Soest. <\/span><\/span>I<\/span><\/span>n<\/span><\/span> most other images I <\/span><\/span>know<\/span><\/span>, Joseph seems to do nothing much other than stand by, ponder, and adore. <\/span><\/span>I<\/span><\/span>n some cases, he has fallen asleep.<\/span><\/span> Certainly, pondering and <\/span><\/span>adoring the mystery that is Christmas is a primary, <\/span><\/span>profoundly <\/span><\/span>appropriate<\/span><\/span>, and imperative <\/span><\/span>posture. <\/span><\/span>W<\/span><\/span>e <\/span><\/span>will <\/span><\/span>do well to practice it in the midst of all <\/span><\/span>other <\/span><\/span>holiday festivities<\/span><\/span>.<\/span><\/span> \u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Yet a<\/span><\/span>t the same time, there is something <\/span><\/span>deeply <\/span><\/span>revealing <\/span><\/span>in <\/span><\/span>Conrad\u2019s <\/span><\/span>depiction <\/span><\/span>of <\/span><\/span>a <\/span><\/span>St. <\/span><\/span>Joseph <\/span><\/span>who <\/span><\/span>is busy kneeling on the <\/span><\/span>stable\u2019s <\/span><\/span>floor<\/span><\/span> and blowing on a little fire in order to<\/span><\/span> heat <\/span><\/span>up <\/span><\/span>some <\/span><\/span>food for <\/span><\/span>Mary<\/span><\/span>. Mary herself<\/span><\/span> is resting in the background, lovingly gazing at her <\/span><\/span>newborn child.<\/span><\/span> Conrad\u2019s St. Joseph<\/span><\/span>,<\/span><\/span> r<\/span><\/span>ather than <\/span><\/span>gazing <\/span><\/span>adoringly<\/span><\/span> on both<\/span><\/span>,<\/span><\/span> tak<\/span><\/span>es<\/span><\/span> upon himself the domestic labor of food pr<\/span><\/span>oduction<\/span><\/span> (<\/span><\/span>a labor that was <\/span><\/span>typically in the hands of women<\/span><\/span>, at least<\/span><\/span> until very recently<\/span><\/span>)<\/span><\/span>.<\/span><\/span> And i<\/span><\/span>n this painting, th<\/span><\/span>e<\/span><\/span>food production is visibly a <\/span><\/span>lowly and subservient<\/span><\/span> task.<\/span><\/span> St. Joseph kneels on the floor, far below Mother and Child. The mystery of Christmas in this painting \u2013 <\/span><\/span>that is, <\/span><\/span>shepherds and angels, donkey and ox, Mary and Child \u2013 happen<\/span><\/span>s<\/span><\/span> well <\/span><\/span>above the kneeling cook (who is without halo, <\/span><\/span>and <\/span><\/span>whose simple pottage does not look <\/span><\/span>Michelin-star\u2019d<\/span><\/span>, either<\/span><\/span>). <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

In that <\/span><\/span>image <\/span><\/span>of a <\/span><\/span>lowly, <\/span><\/span>cooking <\/span><\/span>St. Joseph<\/span><\/span>,<\/span><\/span> however<\/span><\/span>,<\/span><\/span>something <\/span><\/span>shines forth <\/span><\/span>about<\/span><\/span> the deepest truth of<\/span><\/span> Christmas<\/span><\/span>. What <\/span><\/span>Conrad\u2019s <\/span><\/span>painting reveals is<\/span><\/span> a code switch<\/span><\/span>,<\/span><\/span> which lies <\/span><\/span>at the heart of <\/span><\/span>the Nativity<\/span><\/span>. And, we might claim in faith<\/span><\/span>, <\/span><\/span>it is <\/span><\/span>the ultimate code switch<\/span><\/span>.<\/span><\/span> What <\/span><\/span>happened <\/span><\/span>in Bethlehem<\/span><\/span>, after all,<\/span><\/span>turns all expectations of what constitutes <\/span><\/span>normality <\/span><\/span>on its head<\/span><\/span>: <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

St. <\/span><\/span>Joseph kneels to cook. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

The quotidian and domestic shine forth as sacred.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

A place on the margins <\/span><\/span>is <\/span><\/span>made <\/span><\/span>the very center of the universe<\/span><\/span>.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

God bec<\/span><\/span>omes<\/span><\/span> human.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
