According to the Gospel of Luke, angels came and informed one group of shepherds, so that they could go and worship Jesus in the manger. The author of Matthew's Gospel knew nothing of this particular event.

According to the Gospel of Matthew, magi came following a star from the east, so that they could worship Jesus in the house where he was born. The author of Luke's Gospel knew nothing of this particular event, and the star was not recorded by any of the scribes who recorded all other interesting celestial events of the time. Even stranger is the reported ability of a star to move from the east to Jerusalem then back towards the south-east to Bethlehem, where it enabled the magi to identify the exact house in which the baby Jesus was to be found.
