the birth of Jesus page 14 by ric Gustafson
After returning from Jerusalem with Jesus, Mary and Joseph have surprise visitors from a foreign land. These wise men from the east were called Magi. Three to possibly twelve men on camels came. They were following the Star of Bethlehem and it settled right where they needed to go. There were soldiers and slaves with them. When they arrived in Jerusalem, they caused quite a stir. When they arrived, King Herod was troubled. They asked " where is the child who was born King of the Jews?". Herod found out it was Bethlehem. They tell Herod that they have seen the child's star and have come to worship him. Herod asks the Magi to report back to him after they have found the child. Herod had a different motive in mind. The Magi leave.
