The Other Three Kings - Audio
"During the time of King Herod," is how Matthew frames the Nativity story. Knowing my Advent Scriptures very well, I knew Luke 2 began naming off some other names. Caesar Augustus. Quirinius. My clever preacher’s mind clicked, knowing especially that the Three Kings we sing of, have been pretty much proven through historical research, they were never really kings. Yes, they had an audience with King Herod, thus they must be some sort of social elites, but they were probably not kings. Herod, Quirinius, Augustus – these are the other three kings.
