Pope unveils nativity scene...

Palestinian Narratives

The Pope has unveiled this year’s Christmas nativity scene, featuring baby Jesus wrapped in a keffiyeh—a powerful nod to a symbol deeply rooted in the region’s history and culture.

The keffiyeh’s distinctive pattern dates back thousands of years, with origins tied to the ancient peoples of the Middle East, including during the time of Jesus. Once a practical garment for shepherds, it has since become a global symbol of identity, resilience, and resistance.
