Who stood for poor people and for the common people Jesus came to save in the infancy narratives?

Same as today. Who stands for us poor serfs, anyways? No-one. Oh, some people try to make a difference and perhaps some do, but ultimately that will pass and again the little people will get screwed over.
Jesus actually saves everyone, not just the poor, or the sick, but all who have lived, ever. Noah walked with God, and he had no Bible to go on, Abraham did the same and was also blessed. Why?
They weren't perfect. Moses murdered an Egyptian, Lot was incestious and David succumbed to lust, coveted his neighbors wife and murdered his neighbor. But ultimately, they all walked with God in FAITH. Jesus saves, by the 'undeserved' GRACE of God ALL who walk in faith, not just those who came after Him.
If this leads to more questions... remember, Jesus IS God - so He can do all this, no problem. Pick up a Bible and read it. There's a reason it's still the #1 bestseller worldwide since it came out...

Who wrote the infancy narratives in the gospels?
A:There are two infancy narratives in the New Testament, in the Gospels of Matthew and Luke. Since these gospels are traditionally attributed to the apostles Matthew and Luke, this would seem to tell us who wrote the infancy narratives. However, the gospels were originally anonymous and were only attributed by the Church Fathers to the apostles whose names they now bear later in the second century. Modern scholars say there is no good reason to accept those attributions and, in fact, neither gospels could have been written by an eyewitness to the life of Jesus or even someone who knew such an eyewitness. Thus, we do not know who wrote the gospels and we therefore do not know who really wrote the infancy narratives.

Is it true that the infancy narratives are the gospels in miniature?
A:There are two infancy narratives in the New Testament, in the Gospels of Matthew and Luke. They differ so much from each other that it would be difficult to say that they both represent or symbolise anything in common. However, we could look at whether the infancy narrative in Matthew is that gospel in miniature and, similarly, whether the infancy narrative in Luke is that gospel in miniature. Matthew's infancy narrative draws a close parallel between Moses and Jesus, drawing extensively from the Old Testament. There are many parallels with the Old Testament, which was undoubtedly the inspiration and major source for Matthew's infancy narrative. Matthew's Gospel also, more than any other gospel, draws on the Old Testament to prefigure the life and mission of Jesus. In this way, the infancy narrative is indeed a miniature of Matthew's Gospel.Luke's infancy narrative includes a detailed story of the birth of John the Baptist, drawing on the Old Testament for this and the Magnificat, sung later by Mary. Luke' infancy narrative refers to the census of Quirinius, which actually took place at least ten years too late for the story, leading Raymond E. Brown (An Introduction to the New Testament) to say that Luke likes to set his Christian drama in the context of well-known events from antiquity, but sometimes inaccurately. Rather than the wealthy magi, who brought expensive gifts for Jesus in Matthew's Gospel, Luke has poor shepherds come to worship Jesus. Luke's Gospel, more than any other gospel, appeals to the poor and talks about salvation for the poor. With its tale about John the Baptist, the inaccurate use of historical context, the poor shepherds and, again, its use of the Old Testament for source and inspiration, the infancy narrative is indeed a miniature of Luke's Gospel.
What are some historical narratives in Mark's Gospel?
Mark's Gospel focuses on the life and mission of Jesus. It does not contain any historical narratives, in the sense of narratives of events that can be confirmed by other sources.
How were the writers of the gospels linked to Jesus?
Matthew was a former tax collector who was a disciple of Jesus.Mark was the son of Mary of Jerusalem (not Mary the mother of Jesus). He came to know Peter the disciple as his major source of information about Jesus. It is uncertain if he ever met Jesus in person, although he probably knew about him.Luke was a gentile physician and a traveling companion of Paul. He talked with Mary as the source for his infancy narratives. He also used other sources for his Gospel but it is unlikely he ever met Jesus personally.John was Jesus closest personal acquaintance and the 'beloved disciple'.
