What does the term 'wise men' refer to in Scripture?

Answered in 1 source

In Scripture, 'wise men' refers to Magi, who were astrologers or scholars from the East seeking knowledge of the Messiah.

'Wise men' in Scripture, specifically in the context of Matthew 2, refers to the Magi, who were likely astrologers or scholars recognizing celestial signs. Their journey to find Jesus highlights their humility and desire to worship the King of the Jews. While they were educated and influential, they acknowledged their ignorance in seeking guidance to find Christ, teaching us that true wisdom involves recognizing our need for God's revelation and grace.
