just a thought.... looking through the greatest man book, something just occurred to me which i can't recall has ever been highlighted (but please correct me).. i always thought it a bit strange that jehovah allowed the three pagan astrologers to find jesus especially as they were obviously guided to him by satan's star (remember they were led to herod first who wanted to kill the messiah).
what purpose did it serve?.
well, a few pages earlier in tgm book, we see mary presenting a dove as a sin offering at the temple - this was the cheapest offering that was acceptable which must have meant that they were pretty poor at the time.. shortly after the three wise men visited the family had to flee to egypt when herod started to kill all the young boys in an attempt to kill jesus.. what would they need to travel and live as exiles for a couple of years?.
hey, it's great to see that the forum still kicking:)
by the way, i would like to share with you an article i wrote about the jewish religion, especially for the jewish girls out there:
the article name is tallit for girls
it's about the jewish tradition of putting tallit when we say our prayers.
i would love to know more about you and your religion, just feel free to share with me!
