Mystery of the Magi

the quest to identify the three wise men
Dwight Longenecker
Book - 2017

The Magi of nativity scenes are romanticized as well-dressed wisemen bringing gifts to Jesus. Traditional Christians tell of a miraculous star that guided exotic kings from Persia, India and Africa. Academics dismiss both accounts as no more than a pious legend.
