THE
¡d ea d e r ¡R ea ctio n Gracious Words We are happy to be members of the large King’s Business family, composed of Christian people who are traveling the narrow, if unpopular way, the terminal point of which is the Celestial City where “ the Lord God omnipotent reigneth.” . . . We are greatly pleased with the December number, as we are with every copy we receive . . . It is a real pleasure to meet the members of the staff as they are photographically pre sented to us, and to meet in the same way the grandchildren of Dr. and Mrs. Talbot. May the Lord bless the dear children and use them to His glory. C arleton H. W right Fredericktown, Ohio Wise Men at the Manger I read with interest the article in the December issue “ Were the Wise Men at the Manger” . . . I have for many years recognized the truth of what the author says. There is, however, one modification which I would suggest. Inasmuch as the visit of the Magi may have been almost two years after the birth, it is quite possible that they found the Child in Bethlehem. Joseph or Mary, either one of them, may have had relatives or friends in that vicinity; and even had they known no one there prior to the visit recorded in the Gospel narrative, it would not be surprising if lifelong friendships were formed with some who may have gathered about to sympathize and assist in those memorable days. And it may have been divinely timed that they made a visit to Bethlehem about the time the Magi arrived in Palestine. I have thought this not unlikely. It seems strange that careful Bible students should have com monly allowed the current idea to persist. W alter C. W right Los Angeles, Calif. The New Bible I am a reader of The King’s Business and have given it to many. I would like to say that there are many readers who would like to have Dr. Feinberg’s review of Isaiah 7:14 and other Scriptures in the Revised Standard Version put in | print or in The King’s Business. Other I magazines, Moody Monthly, S. S. Times, | Eternity and Our Hope have done so. U nsigned The only reason why we have not had an article from Dr. Feinberg on this sub- | ject is that Dr. Feinberg has not had the ! time to put his articles and radio mess ages into print.But that has been done and the article appears on page 7 of I this issue. E ditor Devotionals May I suggest you put in devotionals | again. So many people use them as their I daily devotions. The explanation of the Scripture is very helpful to people who haven’t had any training. M rs . E. C. J ohnson Glendale, Calif.
