A:In Luke's Gospel, Mary and Joseph travelled to Bethelehem from Nazareth for a census and stayed in a stable, there being no room in the inn.

In Matthew's Gospel, Bethlehem was the home town of Mary and Joseph, and the only reference is to the house where the magi visited them. In this account, the house is presumably their own home.

Read Luke 2 in the Christian Bible.

They went to Bethlehem to have the Census taken of their family. They could find no room in the inn. So, they had to go to a stable. Mary gave birth to Jesus. The shepards came after the angels told them their savior had been born. And they worshiped Jesus.

In Luke's Gospel, Mary and Joseph went to Bethlehem to be counted in the census of Quirinius, although the Gospel does not mention the census again after they left Nazareth. Mary gave birth to Jesus in in a manger at Bethlehem, after which they were visited by shepherds and they then travelled to Jerusalem and back to Nazareth.

In Matthew's Gospel, Mary and Joseph had a house, and Bethlehem seems to have been their home town. When Jesus was born in Bethlehem, magi came to visit him. Mary and Joseph were warned not to go to Jerusalem, but to flee from Bethlehem to Egypt.

When they arrived at Bethlehem, they looked for a place for Mary to have Jesus. They were knocking on doors and none of the people had a place to put Mary and Joseph. Finally a person answered the door and said "I have a stable you can put your wife in." They took it and had the adorable baby boy named "Jesus" they put him in a manger with a cloth wrapped around him.
