The Wise Men Search for Jesus
Matthew 2, 1-12
THREE WISE MEN SEE A STAR. THEY KNOW: A NEW KING IS BORN! THEY GO TO ISRAEL.
THE THREE WISE MEN COME TO JERUSALEM. THEY MEET KING HEROD. THEY ASK HIM: „WHERE IS THE NEWBORN KING?“
KING HEROD IS TROUBLED. HE SAYS: „A NEW KING IS BORN!?“
HEROD QUICKLY ASKS SOME PEOPLE, WHO KNOW A LOT. HE ASKS THEM: „WHERE IS THE NEW KING WHO HAS BEEN BORN? LOOK IN YOUR TEXTS AND TELL ME!“
ONE OF THE MEN READS IN THE TEXT. HE SAYS: „HERE IT IS WRITTEN! THE PLACE IS BETHLEHEM! THIS IS WHERE THE NEW KING IS BORN!“
KING HEROD COMES BACK TO THE THREE WISE MEN. HE SAYS: „I KNOW WHERE THE NEW KING IS BORN! HE IS BORN IN BETHLEHEM! GO AND SEARCH FOR THE CHILD! THEN COME BACK TO ME AND TELL ME ABOUT IT! I ALSO WANT TO WORSHIP HIM.“
THE THREE WISE MEN GO ON THEIR WAY. THEY COME CLOSER TO BETHLEHEM AND THE STAR.
THEY COME CLOSER TO THE STAR. THEY ARE VERY HAPPY!
THE THREE WISE MEN COME TO A HOUSE. MARY IS THERE WITH JESUS ON HER ARMS. THE THREE WISE MEN BOW DOWN AND WORHSIP JESUS. THEY GIVE HIM GOLD, FRANKINCENSE AND MYRRH.
LATER, THE THREE WISE MEN ARE ASLEEP. IN THEIR DREAMS, AN ANGEL COMES TO THEM. HE SAYS: „DON'T GO BACK TO KING HEROD! RETURN TO YOUR HOME BY A DIFFERENT ROAD!“
THE THREE WISE MEN DON'T GO BACK TO KING HEROD. THEY RETURN TO THEIR HOME BY A DIFFERENT ROAD.
