Summary
When they saw the star, they rejoiced exceedingly with great joy. And going into the house…they fell down and worshiped him. (V.10-11)
The one true King of the universe is born into a dark world ruled by men who think they are kings. And when men’s kingdoms are confronted with the one true King there are only two responses — reverence for God’s rule and self-denial OR rejection of God’s rule and self-destruction. Men from the East come and worship “toddler Jesus” joyfully, humbly, and tangibly.
