Epiphany
Matthew 2.1-12Context
This week, with the readings for the Epiphany, we complete the series of Advent and Christmas readings. The events in Bethlehem are the completion of the prophecy stories read during December. Epiphany means ‘revelatory manifestation’ and today is the first of three weeks of such revelations of Jesus.
Common thread – Follow the star (Matthew 2.1-12)
Christ came for all peoples. The star leading the wise men has come to rest but the story will continue...
An alternative thread for adults, The Epiphany, draws from Ephesians 3.1-12.
These resources were first published in Issue 45 January/February 2010.
