Lesson 2

 

 

Hi Kiddo's I hope you have had a wonderful week and you have thought about our last lesson.  This week our Bible reading comes from:  Matthew 2: 1-2.

 

[1] Now after Jesus was born in Bethlehem of Judea in the days of Herod the king, behold, wise men from the East came to Jerusalem,  [2] saying, “Where is He who has been born King of the Jews? For we have seen His star in the East and have come to worship Him.”

 

Jesus was born in Bethlehem.  The king who ruled the country at that time was named Herod.  Wise men from the East came to Jerusalem looking for Jesus.  The Bible does not say how many wise men were looking for Jesus.  The wise men called Jesus, “King of the Jews”.  The wise men knew about Jesus and who He was because God had told them in the Scripture.  God gave the wise men a star to follow. The star led them to Jesus.  They wanted to find Jesus so that they could worship Him.
