What if the Magi’s gifts of gold, frankincense, and myrrh were more than symbols—holding ancient secrets of healing and divine connection that modern science is only now beginning to uncover?
Sayer, this article you wrote was really beautiful, thankyou so much! I have been very touched by it. So often in the natural health world, the Creator of all these good and healthy herbs, spices and plants we enjoy is ignored. Thankyou for reminding us all that these wonderful substances are gifts from Him to us!! Have a blessed New Year. And thankyou for Green Med Info!
Relax mejbcart, "magi" and "wise men" are, or were, synonymous. Think about it. In those societies back then, astrology was looked upon as science. These men were educated men of science, intellectuals, wise men who knew and understood things beyond the comprehension ordinary men. Even kings would consult with these "wise men" no matter that their wisdom was in matters pertaining to the occult in particular. If it bothers you that God allowed the Medo-Persian Priests to complete their mission and deliver gifts of high value to the Christ child Jesus, just in time for him to take his mother and foster father Joseph (a lowly carpenter of modest means) on an all expense paid trip to Egypt for a few years until King Herod had died, as instructed by God. So Sayer is correct to use the term Magi, Plural form of Mago (greek) or Mag (hebrew) according to McClintock & Strong Biblical Cyclopedia! I commend you for your in efforts to compare and gain accurate understanding of and insight into the scriptures, and encourage you to continue. Blessings and peace to you and your's
I've been using the essential oils listed here for over 12 years. They are a staple in my home. I've used them from skin care to medicinal purposes and have found them superior to most topical over the counter pharmaceuticals. Thank you for this post and for helping others see the light. I need to look into gold; although, David Wolfe has an Ormus Gold he helped create that I'd like to try. I have also been using Coated Silver which helps with the feeling of an onset of a "cold" to help my body rebound.
Better to be thought a fool than to open your mouth and prove it 🤔
Just as you said, use the words written there (in scripture!?!) Nearly a dozen English translations use the word MAGI. As stated previously that IS the correct translation from the original Greek, I’m not sure how you think you can argue that is wrong. Also, use the words there… so where do you get “three man”? That isn’t there, seems you are adding to or changing scripture. Oops, 😬, that’s a no no.
And when you say important stories, you do mean every word of The Bible, right?
“The Greek word magoi, correctly translated as “Magi” (Matt. 2:1- NIV), is a plural proper noun referring to people of a specific religious group that existed in the Ancient Near East, most specifically the area of ancient Media and Persia.“
PLEASE don’t be one of those people who treats others lesser than because you don’t like their wording (though perfectly appropriate here.)
Sayer wrote an educated article. The previous comment however, I can see errors and inaccuracies.
Be wise all readers and don’t assume proper accuracy without doing your own research. God Bless us, everyone.

Amen to this!
We are so disconnected from real health care
Jesus was not merely the anointed king of the Jews. He was their messiah which they reject, but He is the KING of KINGS for the entire world.

Nicely done. Thank you.
What if... the gold of the Magi's gifts was the gold of tumeric?

Don’t be defensive, be wisely educated.
