Biblical Wise Men
It takes a very brave person to bring out the history of the Nativity Story. And since we are talking about facts here whosoever were to read about the account of Herod Sr. and the account of Jesus the Politician and Prophet would want the story to be both completely accurate and true. Wouldn’t believers want to read fact if there was a mad man who would be in fear of the birth of Jesus?
The Nativity Story is completely distinct from the “Mother of Jesus Through Divine Intervention Story - Joseph (father of Jesus), the Virginity of Mary, the Mary (mother of Jesus), and the virgin birth of Jesus, though it is a popular mistake to confuse them.
In the Divine Intervention Story, Mary is identified in the New Testament and in the Quran as the wife of Joseph and the mother of Jesus. The Jewish, Catholic, Protestant, Jehovah’s Witnesses Christians, and, yes, the Muslims accept these three. Many Jewish, Protestants, Jehovah’s Witnesses, as well as Muslims, see a minimal role for Mary within belief based on the brevity of the Torah, and both New Testament and Quranic references. In the Nativity Story readers see a revered role for Herod Sr. (psychotic mass murderer of children) within belief based on the writings in Mathew. But Does God have anything to do with the Nativity Story? Was it rejected?
And so, mad man sent out his officers to seek all males that were from 2 years of age and under. If this happened would certain lovers of Jesus afterwards attempt to create a myth about kids being murdered during the time Herod Sr. was awake? Possibly so. Supposals of hundreds of infants snatched from their moms and dads to be executed would be an incredible event. Was this story the keystone of Judaism, starting point of Christianity, and even the background of Islam (Muslims)?
The Nativity, the birth of Christ; the season of Christmas has an explosive factor surrounding it. Who would be next to serve as a guide or rule for man. According to the Bible writer of Matthew, the second chapter, verse 1 through 23, Herod Sr. was a very angry and sick old man who was about to die. And a hunt for Jesus of Bethlehem had begun. Joseph-of-Judea, being given divine warning in a dream, withdrew into the territory of Galilee. Joseph dwelt in a city named Nazareth. And the baby was coming!
Thus we have biblical believers in our Jesus of Nazareth. The next political leader that stepped in behind Herod Sr. to govern had to find a quick solution to end youth crime, homelessness, open street selling of illegal weapons used for violence, high imprisonment, and lack of job opportunities. Pre-Judaism, Pre-Christian, and/or pre-Islamic students having been the readers about Elohim, Yahweh, God Almighty, Jehovah, and Allah all say that a politician of miracle birth such as Jesus and the murder of the children to get Jesus never happened.
There are Jewish writers, such as a writer named Flavius Josephus, born (A.D. 37-c.100) 39 years after the death of Herod Sr. tell a different story. Josephuswrote 37 years after the death of Jesus of Nazareth. Josephus says that Herod was the father of Archelaus who ruled after Herod died. According toJosephus, who wrote history of the Jews from the reign of Antiochus Epiphanes(B.C. 175-163) to the fall of Masada in A.D. 73 during the settings of the New Testament times, claims that there was no such Nativity Story.
And there is the famous leader in Medina. The biography of Muhammad is the history of the Prophet of Mecca who gathered around him a society of believers. And it’s the history of the politician of Medina who founded Islamic faith-movement. In the sureness that his God was identical as “Real” with that of the Jews, and Christians he introduced the ‘Arabic Koran’, the ‘Clear Book’, of his Revelation, to approach the revealed books of other ‘People of the Scripture’. Muhammad's understanding of ‘People’ meant any eyewitnesses or true and honorable writers about births of man. And Herod Sr. murdering baby boys was not of ‘People’. Murdering babies and Jesus - was folk tale created to cause fights between the Jewish, the Christians, and the Muslims during seasons of the year.
