New Testament: Matt 2.1–2

To read the Bible in a year, read Matthew 2 on January 2, In the year of our Lord Christ 2022

By Don Ruhl 

Sometime after the birth of Jesus, the Bible says that wise men from the East arrived in Jerusalem: 

Now after Jesus was born in Bethlehem of Judea in the days of Herod the king, behold, wise men from the East came to Jerusalem, saying, “Where is He who has been born King of the Jews? For we have seen His star in the East and have come to worship Him.”

– Matthew 2.1–2 

How many stars have shown the birth of a child? Only this time. Someone very special had been born. Do you know fully and appreciate with all your heart who was born those many centuries ago? 

Questions: 

• Do you worship the Lord Jesus? 
• Where did the wise men get the idea that the king of the Jews would have a star announcing his birth?
