Rabbi Schneider: 本集讲述了东方博士（麦琪）的故事，他们并非国王，而是智者、天文学家，精通天文、古代预言、科学和神秘学。他们追寻一颗特殊的星星，这颗星被认为是预示弥赛亚到来的征兆。他们并非来自以色列，而是来自东方，可能是流亡巴比伦的犹太人的后裔，对犹太传统和弥赛亚的预言有所了解。他们的旅程象征着人们属灵的追求，智慧与信仰的结合。 Rabbi Schneider: 东方博士的故事强调了服从和信任上帝的价值，即使道路不明确。上帝以不同的方式引导人们，对马利亚来说是天使加百列的显现，对约瑟来说是梦境，对牧羊人来说是天使的歌声，对东方博士来说则是星座中的异常现象。 Rabbi Schneider: 东方博士的智慧引导他们找到星星，但他们的信仰引导他们找到弥赛亚。这颗星是基督之星，指引他人找到他。他们的旅程是人们属灵旅程的隐喻，智慧与信仰的结合。 叙述者: 本集通过祈祷开始，祈求像东方博士一样寻求上帝，并以敬畏、谦卑和喜乐来敬拜他。然后讲述了耶稣诞生后，马利亚和约瑟回到伯利恒，在一个小房子里抚养耶稣的故事。他们看到一颗特殊的星星，这颗星预示着东方博士的到来。 叙述者: 东方博士的故事描述了他们如何发现这颗星，并根据预言意识到弥赛亚的到来。他们为旅程做准备，收集珍贵的礼物，踏上旅程。他们的旅程象征着人们属灵的追求，智慧与信仰的结合。 叙述者: 东方博士的故事教导我们服从和信任上帝的价值，即使道路不明确。
