Matthew 2:9-12 ESV
9 After listening to the king, they went on their way. And behold, the star that they had seen when it rose went before them until it came to rest over the place where the child was. 10 When they saw the star, they rejoiced exceedingly with great joy. 11 And going into the house they saw the child with Mary his mother, and they fell down and worshiped him. Then, opening their treasures, they offered him gifts, gold and frankincense and myrrh. 12 And being warned in a dream not to return to Herod, they departed to their own country by another way.
They beheld the star and came to see what Herod and Jerusalem could not see, though Israel had long awaited the one foretold. The light of the star rose for all men.
They had come in their own way, but upon finding the child they fall to their knees. After worshipping Him, they traded their treasure for His.
They left another way, in more ways than one.
