Despite careful search and
study, nothing else is known to
astronomers, that might have
been taken by the Migi as q
sign. That most Jews did no,
then believe in astrology is well
known, so they would not have
paid any attention to the con-
junction of Jupiter and Saturn
in z B. c. Many people neither
know nor care that the same
thing happened in l940-41.
If there was real event in

on their way to discover the

OF course, there will always
be those who will prefer to be-
Eeve that the Star of Bethlehem
was a miracle, given only to the
eyes of the Wise Men to see.
But is it after all importan,
to know what the Star of Beth

are that Jesus was born, that he
dwell on Earth for a time with

have altered the history OF the
