New Book Reveals Magi History for All Ages

In Sophia Institute Press’s new children’s book, The Wise Men Who Found Christmas, Catholic journalist and author Raymond Arroyo presents the traditional tale of the Three Wise Men or Magi who visited the newborn Jesus in Bethlehem with important, often overlooked historical details. Beautifully illustrated by Diane Le Feyer, Arroyo’s book brings to light factual questions about who the Magi were, their origins and relationship with Roman-occupied Judea’s King Herod. Arroyo joined Conservative Casual Friday show host Andrew E. Harrod for interesting discussion about the deeper realities behind the Magi, their historical context in the Middle East, and what they mean today, among other matters.
