Thank you David for good detective work to follow the clues. Babylon and successive kingdoms had maintained scholars and scientists (such as the Wise Men of Matthew's Gospel) and were well aware of the Jewish Scriptures (from the time of their captivity and exile to there about 6th centuries before) where the prophesy of a mighty and superior ruler of all manking was to come. It is not al all irrational to be open to the thought that the Almighty can use astrologers to break into the knowledge base in any nation of such a significant and unique event – a Saviour and Lord for all.

nice to know that there is some substance to the tale of the three Magi following the star…..
