“This must be a dream….I’ve only just given birth in an out-house now I’m sitting on a throne and the baby’s growing fast. That wasn’t frankincense, was it?”
Actually Jesus was something like 2 years old before the guys with the gifts got there. They saw the star when he was born, traveled to Jerusalem to confer with the King, then went on to where Jesus was living with his mother and father. That’s why the King had all baby boys 2 years old and under killed.
