Before:
The descriptive humble origins of Jesus are key throughout the narrative in Matthew and Luke. It is more important to value Jesus’ humble origins than it is to know the definite history of his birth story.
After:
Throughout the narrative in the Gospel of Matthew and Luke, the writers intentionally depict the humble origins of Jesus. This description should bear more importance to the reader than the definite history of the infancy narrative.
I used “this” with a modifying noun, and I changed my “to be” verbs. It adds more life to my work.
