Bintang Betlehem
Bintang Betlehem, atau Bintang Krismas,[1] muncul dalam kisah kelahiran Injil Matius bab 2 di mana "orang bijak dari Timur" (Majus) diilhamkan oleh bintang itu untuk mengembara ke Baitulmaqdis. Di sana, mereka bertemu dengan Raja Herodes dari Yudea, dan bertanya kepadanya:
Di manakah Dia yang telah dilahirkan sebagai Raja orang Yahudi? Sebab kami telah melihat bintang-Nya di Timur dan kami datang untuk menyembah Dia.[2]
