Matthew 2:10

Mat. 2:10. " When they saw the star, they rejoiced with exceeding great joy." The wise men that sought Christ traveled through a vast howling wilderness, full of pits and drought and serpents, hideous rocks and mountains, even the desert of Arabia, before they had this 'joy' of seeing that star; and soon after they inquired of the priests, the star arose - which well represents what commonly is before persons have that joy which arises from the discovery of the Person represented by this star, even Christ, "the bright and morning star." Revelation 22:16, compared with Revelation 2:28.
