Star of Bethlehem

EDUCATED GUESSES ARE ALL WE’VE GOT when it comes to figuring out what the Star of Bethlehem was.

I’ve written about the theories in a few blog articles and in several of my books. But in case you haven’t read about the most popular theory at the moment here are a few links.

• What was the Star of Bethlehem? This is a blog article that pulls from a feature I wrote for Stephen M. Miller’s Illustrated Bible Dictionary, pages 468-469. It’s the most extensive feature I’ve written on the topic.
• “Star of Bethlehem,” A Quick Guided Tour Through the Bible, page 159. This is my most recent release, wonderfully edited and designed by Harvest House Publishers in Oregon.
• “Star of Bethlehem,” Complete Guide to the Bible, page 304. This is one of my bestsellers, with about half a million copies sold. It has been Amazon’s #1 Christian Bible handbook for most of the year.
• “Star of Bethlehem, A Theory,” Complete Visual Bible, page 312. This is probably the prettiest book I’ve written. The talented folks at Faceoutstudio designed it.

Star of Bethlehem, the video version

This seven-minute video that I created in 2011, back when I was just starting to produce videos, covers the topic even more extensively than I was able to do with the limited space I had available in the books I’ve written.

Merry Christmas. And Peace on Earth would be wonderful.
