"We three kings…"
Pause. Now think back to what you just read. Do you remember how many wise men were mentioned? If you said three, I hate to break it to you, but you’re wrong. That’s a myth.
It doesn’t say. Matthew simply says “some wise men”. Not three. Some. Some could mean 3, 10, 12, 25, 50. But, nobody knows for certain how many wise men were.
Where did the number three come from? It's most likely from the three gifts the wise men brought to Jesus - gold, frankincense, and myrrh.
So, next time you hear the Christmas song, We Three Kings, feel free to choose whichever number you want and sing along while everyone around you gives you strange looks.

Most people picture the first Christmas. Mary and Joseph show up on a donkey, get turned away from a hotel and end up in a barn. Jesus is born, wrapped in blankets and set in a feeding trough. Shepherds, three wise men, animals, and angels were all there (according to nativity sets). Is that the true picture? Not exactly. Let’s separate the true Christmas from Christmyth.
