Old Testament:
“I shall see him, but not now: I shall behold him, but not
nigh: there shall come a Star out of Jacob, and a Sceptre shall rise out of
Israel, and shall smite the corners of Moab, and destroy all the children of
Sheth.” Numbers 24:17
New Testament:
“After Jesus was born in Bethlehem in
Judea, during the time of King Herod, Magi from the east came to Jerusalem and
asked, “Where is the one who has been born king of the Jews? We saw his star in
the east and have come to worship him.”
Matthew 2:1-2
In ancient times, stars and comets were often believed to be heralds of important events. Stars were also seen as symbols of royal power.
