A:Matthew's Gospel says that the magi followed a star, which somehow led them westwards to Jerusalem then turned around and led them back towards the south-east, where it was able to show them the exact house where Jesus lay. However, Ian Wilson (Jesus: The Evidence) says the hard reality is that Matthew's nativity story offers insufficient historicity for anyone to be confident that there was a star at all. This account has all the hallmarks of myth.
