Bear Grylls has been labelled ’embarrassing’ after saying Mary was a Palestinian refugee in a Christmas message to his followers.
The 50-year-old explorer took to social media to share ‘a quick historical note’ about ‘Maryam (Mary)’.
He wrote on X: ‘In these next few days billions of us around the world celebrate the birth of a Middle Eastern refugee who, 2,000 years ago, changed the course of the world forever.
Properly ratio’d
HAPPY CHRISTMAS!
Over the next few days, billions of us around the world celebrate God come to earth as a baby, born to live amongst us. He grew up as an impoverished Middle Eastern refugee some 2,000 years ago, yet this Jesus (Yeshua) changed the course of the world forever.… pic.twitter.com/dyjK1EpJIl— Bear Grylls OBE (@BearGrylls) December 25, 2024
