Because the nativity accounts in Matthew and Lukeare so contradictory, some have sought to harmonise them by saying that the events in Luke occurred at the time of Jesus' birth and the events in Matthew occurred two years later, when Jesus was two. This explanation glosses over differences in the two accounts, but is the reason that some point to Herod's slaughter of children under two years old as meaning that Jesus was just two at the time the wise men arrived.
