Rabbi Schneider: 本集讲述了东方博士的故事，他们并非国王，而是精通天文学、占星术和炼金术的智者。他们追随一颗特殊的星星，这颗星被认为是预言中弥赛亚到来的预兆。根据圣经记载和历史推测，他们可能在耶稣诞生后数月甚至数年才到达伯利恒。他们的旅程象征着智慧与信仰的结合，以及对神旨意的顺服。他们并非仅仅依靠世俗的知识，更重要的是他们对预言的信仰指引他们找到了耶稣。 Rabbi Schneider: 东方博士的故事也体现了上帝以各种方式与人相遇的真理。对于马利亚来说，是天使加百列的显现；对于约瑟来说，是神圣的梦境；对于牧羊人来说，是天使的歌声；而对于东方博士来说，则是天空中异常的星辰。上帝并非只使用单一的方式来干预，祂的旨意通过各种途径显明。 Rabbi Schneider: 东方博士的旅程也强调了在不确定中顺服和信任上帝的重要性。即使他们并不完全理解等待着他们的将会是什么，他们仍然踏上了充满挑战的旅程，这颗星成为了他们旅程中的指引。他们的故事提醒我们，在人生的道路上，智慧和信仰同样重要，缺一不可。 旁白/祈祷者: 通过祈祷，表达了对耶稣的敬仰和寻求，希望能够像东方博士一样，以真诚的心去追寻和敬拜耶稣，并祈求上帝的引导和恩典。祈祷中也表达了对耶稣的赞美，以及对耶稣所带来的救恩、爱和永生的感恩。
