In Matthew’s account of Jesus’ birth, a star guides magi from the east to the birthplace of Christ. But what was this light in the night sky, appearing and disappearing in connection with the birth of Jesus?

Richard J. Doyle, who works in space exploration, offers a lecture examining the possibilities for the Star of Bethlehem. Merging biblical accounts with historical records, ancient culture, and modern astronomy, Dr. Doyle offers insight into one of the world’s most well-known celestial apparitions.
