Anderson⁽ⁱ⁾ ⁷ Then Herod, when he had secretly called the Magi, inquired of them strictly at what time the star, then visible, first made its appearance: ⁸ and sending them to Bethlehem, he said: Go, make strict inquiry for the young child: and when you have found him, bring me word, that I also may go and do him homage. ⁹ When they had heard the king, they departed; and lo, the star, which they had seen in the east, went before them, till it came and stood over the place where the young child was. ¹⁰ And when they saw the star, they rejoiced with very great joy.
