Immerse yourself in the timeless tale of The Nativity with the Biblical Coin of the Magi mini album. Journey alongside the Three Wise Men as they follow the guiding Star of Bethlehem to the humble manger, bearing gifts fit for a newborn king: gold, frankincense, and myrrh.
But who were these enigmatic figures known as the 'wise men'? Delve into the origins of the term 'Magi,' derived from an Old Persian term for the Zoroastrian priestly caste, which later influenced the word 'magic' in English. Contrary to popular belief, these Magi likely hailed from the same kingdom, not three separate ones, as indicated in the Gospel of Matthew.
Recent scholarship suggests that the Magi were emissaries of the Indo-Scythian ruler Azes II, king of Bactria, located in present-day Afghanistan. As a descendant of Alexander the Great, Azes II would have been keenly aware of events in the West and sought to curry favor with the future King of the Jews.
While religious art often depicts one of the wise men presenting Jesus with a vessel of gold, it's more probable that the 'gold' referenced in the Gospel symbolized 'money,' likely in the form of bronze coins minted by Azes II, similar to those featured in this coin set.
Capture the essence of this ancient tale and explore its historical intricacies with The Nativity: Biblical Coin of the Magi mini album, a treasure trove of history, culture, and faith.
