The passage in which Simeon blessed the baby Jesus and prophesied great things was an opportunity to prove to the readers of Luke's Gospel that Jesus was indeed the son of God. For some reason, Simeon, alone of all people, had been promised that he would not die before he saw the Lord's Anointed (Christ). Simeon recognised Jesus as the Christ as soon as he saw him, and blessed the young family. The author of Luke often used repetition to ensure certainty among his readers, so the story of Simeon was immediately followed by the story of Anna the prophetess.
Simeon's encounter with Jesus at the temple can be explained as a fulfillment of the prophecy that he would not die before seeing the Messiah. Led by the Holy Spirit, Simeon recognized and proclaimed Jesus as the promised Savior, showing his faith and devotion to God's promise. This encounter also signifies Jesus' role as the fulfillment of the Old Testament prophecies and the long-awaited Messiah.
