Matthew 2:11

They went into the house. Not the stable, but a temporary home. Many think Joseph and Mary stayed in Bethlehem until the forty days of purification were completed; the young child then presented in the Temple (Luke 2:22); returned to Bethlehem; were visited by the Magi; then escaped to Egypt. If this is correct, Jesus would have been at least six or seven weeks old when the Magi came. (Some think Matthew 2:16 implies he was almost two years old when they came.) With his mother Mary. Perhaps in his mother's arms. They knelt down and worshipped him. (Note they did not worship his mother.) Offered him presents. As customary to kings. Frankincense. A very expensive fragrant gum, distilled from a tree which grows in India and Arabia. Myrrh. A fragrant gum from an Arabian thorn-bush. God's providence is seen in these gifts. They provided the money for the escape into Egypt and bought food and shelter for the holy family while there.
