THE DAY OF EPIPHANY IS ON MONDAY, JANUARY 6TH.
MANY PEOPLE ACROSS THE WORLD WILL EXCHANGE PRESENTS ON MONDAY, RATHER THAN ON CHRISTMAS. Many people call this day Three Kings Day or just Kings Day. (Although the Bible doesn't call the Magi (wise men) kings and doesn't say there were only 3)
According to TRADITION Jan. 6th is the day the gentile (non Jewish) wise men arrived at A HOUSE in Bethlehem when Jesus was POSSIBLY 2 years old, (based on the fact that Herod wanted all the baby boys in Bethlehem killed up to 2 years old).
We call this day EPIPHANY which means "a revelation". Why is it called by that name? Because Jesus did not keep himself hidden but continued to REVEAL himself to the whole world.
Since he revealed himself also to the wise men who were Gentiles or non Jews, EPIPHANY is often called "The Christmas of the Gentiles" .
Praise God for sending the Savior not just to Israel but also to the Gentiles, to the whole world, to us.
