ADORATION
OF THE MAGI




M A T T H E W
CHAPTER 2

After Jesus was born in Bethlehem in Judea, during the time of King Herod, Magi from the east came to Jerusalem and asked, “Where is the one who has been born king of the Jews? We saw his star in the east and have come to worship him.”

The star they had seen in the east went ahead of them until it stopped over the place where the child was. When they saw the star, they were overjoyed. On coming to the house, they saw the child with his mother Mary, and THEY BOWED DOWN AND WORSHIPED HIM. Then they opened their treasures and presented him with gifts of gold and of incense and of myrrh.

NOTICE:

This Stained-Glass Christmas runs through Christmas Eve, but then I’ll be taking a break from posting until sometime in January--a date yet to be determined.

Those who frequent the Archive already know the next topic: CHRIST IN THE OLD TESTAMENT.

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!
Dan
