Overview

It is recommended that readers buy the third edition. It will contain over 40 more pages of material in a reorganised format. A smaller booklet with the key points will also be released in the fall of 2015. Wise men from the east came to Jerusalem, saying, Where is He who has been born King of the Jews? The biblical account of the Magi and the star that announced the coming of the Messiah of Israel has inspired and puzzled people for two millennia. TheLion Led the Way, has stronger ties to Judaism than any previous effort of explaining the starry events surrounding Jesus' birth. The traditional Jewish names of the certain stars and planets, as well as Jewish dates, seem to be keys to unlocking the mystery of the star. The Jewish aspect of the story of the wise men has been long neglected. Hundreds of thousands of Jews lived in Mesopotamia and ancient Iran during the 1st centuryBC. Zoroastrian Magi were important in the history of the vast region to the east of Judea, but Babylonian, Greek and even Jewish wise men also played a role in several successive empires. The Magi, who arrived in Bethlehem, seem to have understood at least part of the meaning of Daniel's prophecy concerning the 70 sevens. They saw how the prophecy was linked both to the stars and to the birth of the Messiah. The Righteous One, who was born in Bethlehem, is still making himself known. His ways are as mysterious as ever, his humility is unsurpassed. The second edition contains about 70 pages of new material.

Author Information

The Author: Dwight Hutchison has worked with Youth With A Mission since 1986. For over 20 years he was involved in organizing and directing a worldwide intercessory prayer effort. Dwight and his family live in the Rhone Valley in southern France. Having been interested in astronomy and the Star of Bethlehem since his youth, over the past 10 years Dwight quietly did some research about the famous star. Unexpectedly, in January 2012, doors opened for him to study the subject in much greater detail. This book is the fruit of two years and nine months of nearly full-time research and writing concerning the famous star and the men who understood its meaning.
