Why were the visitors who came to see Jesus symbolic?

In Matthew's Gospel, magi came to see the baby Jesus. The magi were priests of the Zoroastrian religion of the ancient Persians, which taught that the promised Saoshyant would be born of a virgin and come to help humanity defeat evil. The author of Matthew was undoubtedly familiar with this belief, and portrayed the magi as willing to travel a great distance to worship Jesus, who was also born of a virgin, and therefore they symbolised the virgin birth and the promised defeat of evil.In Luke's Gospel, poor shepherds came to see the baby Jesus.
