  • Resumen

  • Travel is a cornerstone of the Christmas story.

    Due to an imperial decree, Joseph and Mary had to travel to their ancestral home to accomodate Jesus' birth. Then there's also the obvious story of the three Magi. Famous for following yonder star and the gifts they gave.

    In our podcast, Father Neil discusses TS Eliot's epic poem: The Jouney of the Magi (written in 1927). Eliot adds new dimensions to this story by exploring different facets of the journey. His perspective was that it was an arduos trip and that the Magi were vastly affected by the experience. Eliot provides an unique account on what it would have been like for the Magi as they returned to their homes and faced their people.

    Eliot outlines a "death" that followed a "birth" as the Magi looked upon their "kingdoms" and "an alien people clutching their gods."
