They are astrologers-men who study the position of stars, claiming that by doing so they are able to tell the meaning of events in people's lives. (Isaiah 47:13) While at home in the East, they saw a "star" and followed it hundreds of miles, not to Bethlehem, but to Jerusalem.
When the astrologers get there, they ask: "Where is the one born king of the Jews? For we saw his star when we were in the East, and we have come to do obeisance to him."-Matthew 2:1, 2.
