Yeshua is dedicated in the temple

Luke 2:22–38

2:22 Yeshua is dedicated in the temple

22 Then when the time of the mother’s purification was fulfilled as per Mosheh’s (Moses’) instructions, they took him down to Yerushalem (Jerusalem) to be dedicated to Yahweh 23 to follow what is written in Yahweh’s law: Every firstborn male is set aside for Yahweh[ref] 24 and hence a sacrifice has to be made, which according to that law is a pair of turtledoves or a pair of young doves.[ref]

25 Now listen, there was a man named Shim’on (Simeon; Grk. Sumeon) in Yerushalem and he was godly and committed, waiting for God to rescue Yisrael (Israel). He was full of the holy spirit 26 and the spirit had told him that he wouldn’t die without seeing Yahweh’s messiah. 27 He had come to the temple listening to the spirit at just the same time as the parents brought in the baby Yeshua (Jesus; Grk. Yesus) in order to follow the rituals for new parents. 28 Shim’on took the baby into his arms and blessed God and said, 29 “Now, Yahweh, you can send your slave away in peace as you promised 30 because I’ve set my eyes on your salvation 31 which you have prepared in front of everyone: 32 a light so the non-Jews can understand, and the greatest gift from and for your people of Yisrael.”[ref]

33 The baby’s parents were amazed at the things being spoken about him, 34 and Shim’on blessed them and said to Maria (Mary; Heb. Miryam; Grk. Maria /Mariam), “Listen, this boy has been chosen to cause both the rise and the fall of many people in Yisrael, and sent as a sign but one which many people will oppose. 35 Also even as you experience incredible grief in the future, it will allow the thoughts of many hearts to be revealed.”

36 Also there, was a prophetess named Hanah (the daughter of Penuel from the tribe of Asher). She was very elderly, having been married for seven years 37 and then had been widowed for eighty-four years. She was always at the temple, serving night and day in prayer and fasting. 38 She also approached the baby around the same time, and praised God and spoke about the boy to everyone in Yerushalem (Jerusalem) who was waiting for God to free them.

That’s the regulation for a woman who gives birth to either a male or a female.

8 If she’s unable to afford a lamb, then she must take two young pigeons or doves—one for the burnt offering and one for the sin offering.[ref] Then the priest will make her right with God, and then she’ll will have been purified.
