| Another reason it may have been appropriate for the disciples to keep quiet was that there are several ways to respond to something that is amazing and nearly incomprehensible. One response is to shout and exclaim, like the shepherds did after seeing the baby Jesus. Mary, on the other hand, “kept all these things, pondering them in her heart.” Silence may mean the absence of words, but it can also mean the presence of meanings too deep for words.
