rHE “STAR" which signaled “the
Fi'St Christmas” may be inter
preted In many ways. In all such
Interpretations we must put oar
. selves as nearly as possible into the
jovial and psychological frame of.
j mind of those whom we try to un- j
derstarid. The 'attninoiner know •]
that through the ages the word
"s<ar" has been used to indicate;
kimost any celestial .phenomenon. :
A'e sViU speak yf failing stars
>r “shooting stars" which we know
juite well are not stars at all In
more ancient times the comet was
railed a “hairy star” and was de
rived from tie I.atm word coma,
meaning hair. The plane.s were the
“wandering stars" as opposed to the
“fixed stars", anfl from the Greek
word for wanderer we derive our
word “planets.”

public auction, foi cash to the
highest bidder, the property rie
scribed in said deed of trust as fol
lows, lo-wit:
The Star of Bethlehem could have
-jeen any of these. It could even
aave been a “new star" or nova
.vhich suddenly burst forth with a
many-thousand-fold increase in bril
■ ance, due to some •'
catastrophe. These are all explana
tory of.v.hat the “star” could have
seen. Had it (pern any of the above,
t would have been seen b> many
icopir-s. and deratu."'- n . d have
jebn-fouau refer?!;.
ince of the object which a;t;;.cted
attention. But nowhere in the Viera
:ure or in the folklore ol any r-1 .P,
peoples noted as astute observers of
’elestial phenomena do these refer
ences exist.
From this' we are forced to con
clude the appearance of the star was
a sight given only to the Wise Men
to see.
