In preparation for the coming celebration of Christmas, arguable the second most significant celebration in the year, Read Matthew 2:1-12 and see how many of the following questions you can answer. If you have questions or are unsure of something, please post a comment.
- What caused the Kings to come to find the Christ child? Who did they say they were looking for?
- What was Herod’s response to hearing what the Kings from the east had to say?
- What is Herod’s plan with regard to this “king of the Jews” that has been born?
- What was the reaction of the Kings to seeing the star (v. 10)?
- What was the response of the kings from the east when they saw the Christ child according to Matt. 2:11?
- What is your response to the Christ child? Do you worship Him? Tell others of what you have seen Him do in your life? Perhaps this coming year, you want to make your response to the Christ child more evident
- What gifts did they bring to Jesus, the King? (v. 11)
- What does each gift signify or foretell?
