The visit of the Magi part 1
Matthew 2:1-6
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 been born
king of the Jews? We saw his star in
the east and have come to worship him.
When King Herod heard this he
was disturbed and all Jerusalem with
him. When he had called together all
the people's chief priests and teachers
of the law he asked them where the
Christ was born. In Bethlehem in Judea they replied for this
is what the prophet has written.
But you Bethlehem in the land
of Judah are by no means least among
the ruler of Judah
for out of you will come
a ruler who will be the shepherd of my people Israel.
