Answer:

Gabriel told Zacharias he would have a son.

Gabriel told Mary she would give birth to the Savior.

Caesar Augustus ordered a census be taken,

Angels appeared to shepherds to announce Jesus' birth.

Wise men visited Jesus.

Joseph, Mary, and Jesus went to Egypt.

Step-by-step explanation:

The birth of Jesus Christ is narrated in two books of the New Testament, namely the book of Matthew and Luke. And both these Gospels cover the nativity story in their first and second chapters.

Now, arranging the given in the correct order, the first is the angel Gabriel's visit to Zacharias about God's promise to give him a son. This can be found in Luke chapter 1. Then, Gabriel visits Mary, which is also seen in chapter 1.

Luke chapter 2 begins with the census ordered by Caesar Augustus, for which Joseph and Mary also went to Bethlehem to register themselves. There, Mary gave birth to Jesus in a manger, with the angels announcing His birth. Then, the three wise men went to visit the baby Jesus with gifts. Along the way, the wise men had passed Herod who wanted to kill Jesus. So, an angel warned Joseph to escape to Egypt with Mary and baby Jesus on that very same night. These events are found in Luke chapter 2.
