Antonia, Leah's sister-in-law, was widowed and childless, and had grown reserved, unlike Leah and Merari, who were generous and often welcomed strangers. Antonia couldn't understand why they helped travelers beyond what was required. At dinner, she met Joseph and Mary, feeling a rare sense of hope. After they left, Antonia shared with Leah her feeling that the travelers were special.
The next day, Antonia, surprisingly happy, saw her nephews returning with news of angels and the birth of a Savior. Realizing they'd hosted the Holy Family, Antonia joined others in visiting Bethlehem.
During the journey, her worries faded. Recognizing Mary and Joseph at the stable, she felt a newfound generosity, fitting in perfectly with Leah and Merari's values. Antonia’s heart was lightened, feeling blessed to share in giving.
