Who Were the Magi?

The rag-mag or the Magi as they are better known were the PhDs of their day, equivalent to Daniel in rank and wisdom. It is believed that they came from different parts of the Eastern world. From the banks of the Tigris River, Mesopotamia or Egypt. Men of such high rank do not travel alone. The gifts they had were very expensive. They studied the translated hebrew scriptures which was written in the Greek language more than two hundred years before, ordered by Alexander the Great.

The text in Daniel 9:24 holds the key to the time of the Messiah's birth, while the star led them to the place where he was born. God sent this band of angels (that is what they really were) and for two years they alerted these students of the scriptures. The only mistake they made was going to Jerusalem.

This book explains the facts and circumstances surrounding the birth and first advent of Jesus. Caesar Augustus, Herod the Great, The shepherds and how the Magi discovered about his birth.
