In the Bible, Simeon was the man in the temple who recognized Jesus as the Messiah when he was presented by Mary and Joseph at the temple in Jerusalem. Simeon had been told by the Holy Spirit that he would not die before seeing the Messiah, and he blessed Jesus and proclaimed him as the Savior.
The two people who witnessed the presentation of Jesus in the temple as a baby were Simeon and Anna. Simeon was a devout man who had been promised by God that he would not die before seeing the Messiah, and Anna was a prophetess who recognized Jesus as the Redeemer.
The bible does not mention which wise man brought the gold to baby Jesus.
