Book Reviews of Gifts of the Magi: Gold, Frankincense, and Myrrh
Book Review: Perfect gift for the feast of the Epiphany! (Jan. 6th)
Summary: 5 Stars
This book comes with small samples of Gold, Frankincense, and Myrrh, which have a special blessing in the Catholic 'Rituale Romanum' for the feast of the Epiphany, the feast of the arrival of the three Magi (Caspar, Melchior, and Baltassar) at Christ's crib. This boxed set is perfect for the blessing of the three gifts, which can be combined with the special Epiphany blessing of houses, since the priest can use the Frankincense for incense during the house blessing. Part of the blessing states "From the East the Magi came to Bethlehem to adore the Lord; and opening their teasures, they offered costly gifts: gold to the great King, incense to the true God, and myrrh in symbol of His burial. Alleluia." A perfect, usable gift that can be kept alongside the family Nativity scene for years to come.
