Bible Question (short): How do Matthew 2 and Luke 2 meld? |
Question (full): Johnny, you need to meld Luke and Matthew. Luke 2:39 happened on day 40 of His life on earth (Lev 12:1-4). -So did they go back to Bethlehem after this visit? -Did the magi worship Him before or after day 40? --If before, why did they only offered a sacrifice of a pair of turtledoves or two young pigeons (Luk 2:24, Lev 12:6-8)? They were not poor? |
