Why these differences? They stem from the needs
and concerns of the audience the authors were
addressing, as well as the theological stance of each
author. Knowing the original intention helps get at the
correct interpretation of the text.

Since Matthew was writing primarily to a Jewish
community, his concern was to show that Jesus did
not come just for Jews, but for Gentiles as well. From
his very birth, Jesus not only manifests himself to
Jews, but also to Gentiles, who are prominently
included in the manifestation, symbolized by the Magi
and their journey. This is the most significant aspect
of the feast of Epiphany. How do you manifest Jesus
to all with whom you come into contact?

Después, abriendo sus cofres, le ofrecieron regalos: oro, incienso y mirra. Advertidos durante el sueño
                                           de que no volvieran a Herodes, regresaron a su tierra por otro camino.
                             Querida familia luego de transitar este tiempo de navidad seguimos en nuestro desafío por la santidad
                             en medio de este mundo. Hoy, una imagen muy especial nos invita a la reflexión profunda. Hoy es el
                             día en donde los Reyes Magos provenientes de oriente quieren adorar al Niño recién nacido. Podemos
                             ver como, cada uno de ellos, con algo característico de sus tierras, ofrendan al niño lo mejor. Tres
                             cosas. Oro, incienso y mirra serán los regalos. Ahora, ¿Qué significan estos regalos? Parecerían muy
                             simples pero en realidad tienen un sentido muy profundo: Después, abriendo sus cofres, le ofrecieron
                             regalos: oro, incienso y mirra. Advertidos durante el sueño de que no volvieran a Herodes, regresaron a
                             su tierra por otro camino. El oro entregado por los magos a Jesús era un reconocimiento de su realeza;
                             el incienso, un homenaje supremo a su divinidad y la mirra, un anuncio a sus padecimientos como
                             Redentor. Cada uno de los regalos tiene un sentido que prefigura su identidad. Ahora, este no será el
                             punto de reflexión pero no quería dejar de reflexionar sobre esto. Mi pregunta se detendrá en realidad
porque los reyes magos volvieron por otro camino. El sentido literal lo sabemos todos: “advertidos por el sueño no volvieron a
Herodes”, pero detrás de esto hay un sentido mucho más profundo en el cual me gusta detenerme… los Reyes magos no volvieron
por el mismo lugar porque en realidad, todo el que se encuentra con Jesús no vuelve por el mismo camino. Esto es increíble
pensarlo así, pero es la verdad. Cuando nos encontramos con Jesús nuestra vida cambia, todo cambia. Aquello que antes vivíamos
sin Jesús ahora cambia de sentido, cambia de prisma, inclusive el sufrimiento tiene una nueva dimensión. Esta afirmación sobre
los Reyes y el camino diferente que elijen es el que debemos tratar de vivir.
        En encuentro con Jesús nos da un nuevo sentido, por eso es importante poder vivir de diferentes maneras esta
experiencia. ¿cómo?, buscando intimidad, a lo mejor, en retiros –hay muchas opciones que son buenas– hacer un retiro nos da
herramientas que nos ayudan en nuestro camino de santidad. La gracia de los sacramentos es un bálsamo para nuestras almas.
Además de tantas oportunidades que tenemos cotidianas para caminar junto con Jesús. Mi pregunta es: ¿cómo es posible que a
veces no podamos llegar a la santidad con tantos regalos que el mismo Jesús nos dejo en esta lucha cotidiana?. Si, es verdad,
pero es por nuestra libertad, el Señor nos respeta, hoy los Reyes Magos se encontraron con Jesús porque ellos lo buscaron, ellos
enfrentaron el camino, con muchos peligros, al encuentro con Jesús. Pero no se detuvieron, no pararon, no frenaron, ellos sabían
que el camino tendría obstáculos pero así mismo arriesgaron. Nuestra vida se trata de arriesgar. Debemos arriesgar siempre,
cuando se trata de santidad, vivimos en un mundo en donde no podemos aceptar tibios, sino hombres que hagan una opción clara
por Jesús, como lo hicieron los Reyes magos, sin importar el precio.
        Dios nos conceda siempre este encuentro que nos transforma, Dios siempre nos de la gracia de amar hasta el extremo
luego del encuentro con El. Pido esto por cada uno de nosotros. Dios te Bendiga. Padre Julio.

Jesús nació en Belén de Judá, en tiempos del rey Herodes. Unos magos de oriente llegaron entonces a Jerusalén y preguntaron:
“¿Dónde está el rey de los judíos que acaba de nacer? Porque vimos surgir su estrella y hemos venido a adorarlo”.
Al enterarse de esto, el rey Herodes se sobresaltó y toda Jerusalén con él. Convocó entonces a los sumos sacerdotes y a los
escribas del pueblo y les preguntó dónde tenía que nacer el Mesías. Ellos le contestaron: “En Belén de Judá, porque así lo ha
escrito el profeta: Y tú, Belén, tierra de Judá, no eres en manera alguna la menor entre las ciudades ilustres de Judá, pues de ti
saldrá un jefe, que será el pastor de mi pueblo, Israel”.
Entonces Herodes llamó en secreto a los magos, para que le precisaran el tiempo en que se les había aparecido la estrella y los
mandó a Belén, diciéndoles: “Vayan a averiguar cuidadosamente qué hay de ese niño y, cuando lo encuentren, avísenme para que
yo también vaya a adorarlo”.
Después de oír al rey, los magos se pusieron en camino, y de pronto la estrella que habían visto surgir, comenzó a guiarlos, hasta
que se detuvo encima de donde estaba el niño. Al ver de nuevo la estrella, se llenaron de inmensa alegría. Entraron en la casa y
vieron al niño con María, su madre, y postrándose, lo adoraron. Después, abriendo sus cofres, le ofrecieron regalos: oro, incienso
y mirra. Advertidos durante el sueño de que no volvieran a Herodes, regresaron a su tierra por otro camino.
