The '''Nativity of the Lord''', commonly known as [[Christmas]], is the [[solemnity]] in the [[Roman Rite]] that celebrates the birth of [[Jesus Christ]] in Bethlehem. Observed on December 25, it is a [[holy day of obligation]] in most [[diocese]]s and opens the [[Christmas season]], which lasts until the [[Baptism of the Lord]]. The feast is rooted in the [[Gospel]] accounts of Luke 2:1–20 and Matthew 1:18–2:12.
According to the *[[General Roman Calendar]]* (2002), the Nativity is ranked as a solemnity of the highest degree, with three proper [[Mass]] formularies: Vigil, Midnight, Dawn, and Day. The [[Prologue of John]] (John 1:1–18) is proclaimed at the Mass during the Day, emphasizing the [[Incarnation]].
== Liturgical observance ==
The liturgical color is white or gold. The [[Gloria]] is sung at all Masses. The [[creche]] is a central devotional element, popularized by [[Saint Francis of Assisi]] in 1223.<ref>{{cite web |url=https://www.vatican.va/content/francesco/en/letters/2019/documents/papa-francesco_20191201_lettera-admirabile-signum.html |title=Admirabile signum |date=1 December 2019}}</ref>
== History ==
The date of December 25 was adopted in Rome by the 4th century, possibly to Christianize the feast of *Sol Invictus*. It became universal after the [[Council of Ephesus]] (431).
