What are the three things that the three kings give to Jesus?
To answer the question we must read Matthew's Gospel in the Christian Bible. So, "What are the three things given?" We find the answer in the Matthew's Gospel. Matthew Chapter 2 verse 11 says:- And coming into the house, they saw the child with Mary His mother. And they fell down and worshipped Him. And opening their treasures, they presented gifts to Him, gold and frankincense and myrrh. However, it is an assumption that there where three kings, wise men or Magi, which is traditionally based on these things 1. the number of gifts given 2. an early 6th century Greek Manuscript in Alexandria 3. the popularity of the Christmas Carol by Reverend John Henry Hopkins, Jnr "We Three Kings of Orient Are." Matthew does not tell us how many there were. Read Matthew Chapter 2 verses 1, 7 & 16
