When the Wise Men came seeking Jesus, what question did they ask?

• A. Where is the one who has been born King of the Jews?
• B. What Child is this?
• C. Where can we find the Messiah?
• D. When will the King of Israel be born?

Answer: (A)

The key idea here is recognizing Jesus’ kingly status from the moment of his birth. The Wise Men traveled from the east after seeing a star and came to Jerusalem with a specific question in mind: Where is the one who has been born King of the Jews? They asked this so they could go and worship him, indicating they understood he was the rightful king announced to Israel. This exact line is found in Matthew 2:1–2 and sets the scene for the response from Herod. The other options don’t match the biblical wording or the situation the magi described.
