Title: How new was the Star? Post by: CyrilSebastian on December 22, 2020, 03:17:44 AM The Star of Bethlehem led the Magi to the Christ Child. Was the star a newly created star? Or was it an existing star? :principalities: Title: Re: How new was the Star? Post by: CyrilSebastian on January 06, 2023, 04:22:53 PM The Magi do not call the Star of Bethlehem by that name. In The Gospel of Matthew Chapter 2 Verse 2 they refer to it as being "his star". It was a sign to them that a king was born. :principalities: Title: Re: How new was the Star?
