“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.” – (Matthew 2:1-2)
This star is often depicted as a bright, roaming globe that shines a spotlight directly on the house of Mary and Joseph for the magi to follow. If this star actually appeared in this fashion, wouldn’t it be obvious to everyone, not just wise men from the east who studied the stars? If this star didn’t exist, what would that mean for the truthfulness about the entire Gospel narrative? Is there evidence outside of the Bible that this star existed?
These questions prompted Andy Reese to dig deep into astronomy, historical records, and the bread crumbs left in God’s Word concerning the historicity of this special star phenomenon. In this episode he will answer these questions and many more.
