When Jesus was born who else came to visit him?

Answer 1

The only ones who came to the manger were shepherds.

(Luke 2:8-20)"There were also in that same country shepherds living out of doors and keeping watches in the night over their flocks. ...the angel said to them: "Have no fear, for, look! I am declaring to YOU good news of a great joy that all the people will have, ..because there was born to YOU today a Savior, who is Christ [the] Lord, in David's city. And this is a sign for YOU: YOU will find an infant bound in cloth bands and lying in a manger." ... And they went with haste and found Mary as well as Joseph, and the infant lying in the manger. ...Then the shepherds went back, glorifying and praising God for all the things they heard and saw, just as these had been told them."

Later, the scriptures at Matthew 2:1-12 mention that 'astrologers (some translations say 'wise men') came looking for: "the one born king of the Jews", but they were not directed to the manger, but to Herod, who wanted to kill Jesus.(Matthew 2:7-18)

By the time they found Jesus, he was no longer an "infant" and was living in a HOUSE.

"And when they went into the house they saw the young child with Mary its mother, and, falling down, they did obeisance to it. They also opened their treasures and presented it with gifts, gold and frankincense and myrrh. However, because they were given divine warning in a dream not to return to Herod, they withdrew to their country by another way."

This is corroborated by the fact that Herod decided to kill all young boys 2 years and younger 'in accordance with the time Jesus was born' - meaning that by the time the wise men had visited Jesus he was probably a toddler around 2 years of age.

Answer 2

A:

In Matthew's Gospel, magi visited baby Jesus when he was born or soon afterwards, in Bethlehem. Because they had alerted King Herod to the presence of Jesus in Bethlehem, Joseph and Mary had to flee from there to Egypt, where they remained until Herod was dead. Magi are variously thought of as wise men or as kings, but the name magi actually refers to priests of the Zoroastrian religion of Persia.

In Luke's Gospel, shepherds visited baby Jesus quite soon after he was born, in Bethlehem. Then the young family left Bethlehem and travelled peacefully back to their home in Nazareth, stopping on the way, to present Jesus in the Temple.

Answer 3

A:

It is in Luke's Gospel that we find Jesus born in a manger - in a stable - and in Luke's Gospel we are told about the poor shepherds who visited Jesus in the stable (Luke 2:16). The wise men (magi) of Matthew's Gospel visited him in a house (Matthew 2:11), because in this gospel Bethlehem was the home town of Joseph and Mary.
