  • Why did the three wise men (magi) give Jesus gold, frankincense, and myrrh?
    What is the significance of this story in the Gospels?
    The song, We Three Kings, describes the meaning of each gift, but is it correct?
    It turns out that there isn't a real consensus. The song could certainly be right.
    We Three Kings Lyrics
    We three kings of Orient are
    Bearing gifts we traverse afar.
    Field and fountain, moor and mountain,
    Following yonder star.
    O star of wonder, star of night,
    Star with royal beauty bright,
    Westward leading, still proceeding,
    Guide us to thy perfect Light.
    Born a king on Bethlehem's plain,
    Gold I bring to crown Him again,
    King forever, ceasing never
    Over us all to reign.
    O star of wonder, star of night,
    Star with royal beauty bright,
    Westward leading, still proceeding,
    Guide us to thy perfect Light.
    Frankincense to offer have I.
    Incense owns a Deity nigh.
    Prayer and praising all men raising,
    Worship Him, God on high.
    O star of wonder, star of night,
    Star with royal beauty bright,
    Westward leading, still proceeding,
    Guide us to thy perfect Light.
    Myrrh is mine: Its bitter perfume
    Breaths a life of gathering gloom.
    Sorrowing, sighing, bleeding dying,
    Sealed in the stone-cold tomb.
    O star of wonder, star of night,
    Star with royal beauty bright,
    Westward leading, still proceeding,
    Guide us to thy perfect Light.

    If I can still remember, when I was working for the BPO industry years ago, I even asked one of my caller (I forgot his name) if what he knows about the biblical Wise Men. After he answered my question we became friends.
    Just want to share.

    Nice video, thank you. You pronounce Magi as "may-jie" and most people say it "ma-jie" (short 'a' as in the word 'mat'). And you say homage with an "h" where most people leave it silent. I appreciated everything else you said. Thank you.

    2 "For I will come and save thee; and kings shall bring me when in the flesh, gold, incense and myrrh; gold as a token of My kingdom; incense as a token of My divinity; and myrrh as a token of My suffering and of My death.

    The magi followed a different route home. I don't think they trusted Herod very well.

    I'll never forget hearing a radio Bible teacher say: Gold because He is a king, frankincense because He is the great high priest and myrrh because He would go to the cross.

    My teacher taught me /ma:gi/ instead of /ˈmeɪdʒʌɪ/. Feeling sad for studying in a village school.
