[quote:Texas Uncensored:MV8xMzAwMDQyXzIxMjg4NzI0X0REMkIxQTM5] [quote:^Watcher^] It is my understanding that when Mary and Joseph fled to Egypt with the Baby Jesus to escape Herod's killing spree, that they lived on the Magi's gifts during that time. [/quote] The Magi did not meet Jesus until he was a toddler. They avoided the meeting until then to protect him from Herod. [/quote]
Original Message
I just saw a picture of the 3 Magi Kings bearing precious gifts for baby Jesus and they were carrying a box each, the size of a shoe box.
So I wonder what did Mary and Joseph do with these precious gifts?
even in those days, the value of that gold would have been more than enough to set themselves up for a life of confort and luxury.
So how come they were so poor?
did they squander it on the Jerusalem stock market?
