Matthew's gospel establishes Jesus as King of the Jews. He traces the Lord's ancestry back to David in order to establish Jesus' right to the throne. This evangelist continually confronts his Jewish readers with the Messiahship of Jesus. In recoding the visit of the magi he draws attention to their question – “Where is he that is born King of the Jews?”
I. What the Magi Sought – The King of the Jews
II. What the Magi Thought – His Birthplace would be Jerusalem
III. What the Magi Brought – Gifts Fitting for this King
One of the great validations of the Bible is fulfilled prophecy. Jesus fulfilled hundreds of scriptures in his birth, his life and his death. He declared himself to be the Bread of Life (John 6:48) and appropriately He was born in Bethlehem, which means House of Bread. Have you received the Bread of Life, the Lamb of God who takes away the sins of the world?
