Epiphany Matthew 2:1-12

"Christmastide" is the season that lasts from Christmas Day to Epiphany. Today we mark the end of that season, Epiphany. Epiphany is the day the Magi finally get to see the baby Jesus and present their gifts before the King of Kings. These wise men were astrologers and dream interpreters. Mystics we might call them. And the God of the universe spoke their language, leading them to Jesus by way of a star and guiding them safely home through a warning in a dream.
