The tradition of wise men is associated with the infancy narratives in the birth of Jesus. Three is often the number, perhaps because they are associated with the gifts of gold, frankincense, and myrrh. They are often called three kings and they came from the east. The Gospel of Matthew in chapter 2 does not refer to a specific number; but calls them magi, who stated they saw the star fortelling of Christ's birth from east of the Holy Land. Some Christian traditions celebrate January 6th, the 12th day of the Christmas season in remembrance of the Incarnate God to the non-Jewish world, as the Epiphany. The three names attributed to them are Baltazar, Gaspar, and Melchoir.

Wise Men of the East, Magi,or Three Kings,men who came from the East to adore the newborn Jesus. Mat. 2. They were the first to tell Herod of the birth. A star (the Star of Bethlehem) had been a sign for them. Christian tradition has elaborated the biblical account; it has set their number as three, perhaps from their gifts of gold, frankincense, and myrrh; it has called them kings, perhaps from Ps. 72.10,11 and Isa. 49.7,23 considered as prophecies; and it has given them names, Caspar or Gaspar, Melchior, and Balthazar. They are called sometimes the Three Kings of Cologne because there is a great shrine to them in the cathedral at Cologne. The feast of the Epiphany commemorates their visit. In art the visit is called the Adoration of the Magi

I see in the night
A shining star
We'll get there alright
Cos we've hired a car
And soon alight
At a local bar
(But better to call it 'an inn'.)
We hope to find the son of God
Which rational folk would call quite odd
Or, even say we're drunken sods
But we travel fast, to see a new age begin.
