The passage narrates the Nativity story of the Magi \u2014 wise men from the East who follow a star to find the infant Jesus in Bethlehem, present gifts of gold, frankincense, and myrrh, and are divinely warned not to return to King Herod. The central narrative arc moves from Herod's paranoid inquiry through the Magi's visit, to Joseph's flight with Mary and Jesus into Egypt, and finally their return to settle in Nazareth after Herod's death. A structurally distinctive feature is the text's repeated fulfillment formula (\"that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophet\"), citing Micah 5:2, Hosea 11:1, and Jeremiah 31:15 to frame events as prophetic completion. The KJV column's inclusion of Strong's numbers makes this a reference or study edition, designed for word-level comparison between the Greek source and English translation rather than devotional reading.","tags":["Book of Acts","Greek New Testament","Polyglot Bible"],"text":null,"title":"Polyglot Bible: Matthew: Matthew 2","tradition":"Hypertext Bible","translated_text":null,"word_count":1582}
