Certain wise men on earth were informed of Michael's impending arrival by seraphim, just as the wise men of Jesus' birth were notified. [1] The wise men from Mesopotamia found baby Jesus and left gifts with Mary. [2] The interview with Herod left him unsatisfied, as the wise men could not provide him with the whereabouts of the newborn “king of the Jews.”. [3]
Wise men arrived in Bethlehem guided by a legend of a star that never shone, seeking the “light of life” born in the manger, unaware of the angelic anthems sung at the noontide birth of Jesus. [4]
