Bethlehem in a stable
Jesus was born in Bethlehem in a stable! >_<
We do not know if there were any other babies born in a stable on the night Jesus was born, as it is not recorded in the Bible. Bethlehem was a very crowded place during this time of registration and lodging was hard to come by. But God gave the shepherds enough information to find the Christ Child in the right place.
If you are asking about the shepherds in the bible, in the New Testament there were going to see baby Jesus. There were headed to Bethlehem in Judaea.
It's a pretty fable. The Christmas star is so significant because it represents the Star of Bethlehem, which in the Nativity Story led shepherds and the Three Kings to locate the baby Jesus from afar. They eventually found Jesus, Mary, and Joseph in a small stable in Bethlehem and worshipped him.
The star in Bethlehem was the star that lead the lowly shepherds to Jesus' manger. It shone day and night, a miracle from God.
