AnswerThe story of the wise men bring presents, including frankincence, to Jesus makes a nice Christmas story for children. But a question, that seeks to establish factually just what form those presents took, must look at the facts more widely. Bishop Spong says that among the people he knows in New Testament circles, the universal assumption is that the magi (wise men) were not actual people. If the wise men were only a literary invention, then there was no frankincence.

Which gift foretold Jesus' death?

A:In Matthew's Gospel, the magi brought gold, frankincense and myrrh as gifts for Jesus. These were extremely valuable and no doubt the author intended the presents to show the high regard in which the wise men held Jesus. One of these gifts, myrrh was used as an embalming oil, so it is possible to consider it as foretelling the death of Jesus, although another way of looking at it is that death can not be foretold because it is inevitable, whether by crucifixion or by natural causes.
