Matthew 2:10
Read this verse in depth with cross-references and study notes
When the star stopped over the place where the child was, the Magi experienced exceeding great joy.
After a long journey following the star, the Magi's joy overflowed when they finally found the King they sought. Their response models authentic worship: joy that leads to costly giving and humble adoration. These Gentile scholars recognized Jesus as King when His own people largely missed Him. Finding Christ always produces overwhelming joy.
