And asked, “Where is the one who has been born king of the Jews?  We saw his star in the east and have come to worship him.”

Read verses 1-2.  Where did the Magi come from?  Why did they come all the way to Jerusalem (verse 6)?  What can we learn from these Magi (Proverbs 23:23)?  What does it mean that Jesus is the King of the Jews (1 Chronicles 17:14)?  

Skim through verses 3-8.  How did King Herod feel about the birth of the King of the Jews?  Did he really want to worship him?
