    The Bible states that the star led the magi to Herod, then to Jesus. Was the star of satanic source?

    How come satan didn't show it to Herod .........and lead his guys with it ? Obviously Herod was keen....

    Go and search diligently for the child, and when you have found him bring me word

    and entering the house (themselves) they found Jesus with Mary his mother, and they fell down and worshiped him

    The three wise men arrived to visit the child lying in the manger.

    One of the wise men was exceptionally tall and smacked his head on the low doorway as he entered the stable.

    "Jesus Christ!" he exclaimed.

    "Write that down, Mary," said Joseph

    "It's better than Derek."

    APaduan, who can determined why things were not done a different way? What we have though is an account of what did happened. Determening from the account, the tricky star was not from God.

    Has anyone ever bothered to figure out that given the speed of light, how many thousands of years ago the star would have had to gone nova, for them to see it that night?
