When Jesus was born in Bethlehem of Judea, in the days of King Herod, behold, magi from the east arrived in Jerusalem, saying, “Where is the newborn king of the Jews? We saw his star at its rising and have come to do him homage.”—Matthew 2:1-2
For a child is
born to us, a son is given to us; upon his shoulder dominion rests. They name
him Wonder-Counselor, God-Hero, Father-Forever, Prince of Peace. His dominion
is vast and forever peaceful, upon David’s throne, and over his kingdom, which
he confirms and sustains by judgment and justice, both now and forever. The
zeal of the Lord of hosts will do this!—Isaiah 9:5-6
