NOW when Jesus was born in Bethlehem of Judea in the days of Herod the king, lo! Magians from the East came to Jerusalem,

saying, Where is he that is born king of the Jews? for we have seen his star in the East, and are come to pay him homage.

So having heard the king, they went on; and lo, the star, which they had seen in the East, had gone before them, till it came and stood over the place where the infant was.

And I say unto you, That many shall come from the east and from the west, and shall sit down with Abraham, and Isaac, and Jacob, in the kingdom of heaven.

For as the lightning cometh out from the east, and flashes to the west; so shall be the coming of the Son of man.
