The Magi's visit signals Jesus as savior not only for Jews but for which group?

• A. Only Jews
• B. Only rulers of Rome
• C. All nations, including Gentiles
• D. Only religious leaders

Answer: (C)

Jesus is presented as savior not only for the Jewish people but for all nations, including Gentiles. The Magi, Gentile travelers from the East, come to worship the newborn king and bring precious gifts, recognizing his reign. This moment shows that God’s salvation isn’t limited to Israel; it reaches the entire world. It foreshadows the church’s mission to the nations and the inclusion of Gentiles in the blessings of Jesus. So the best understanding is that all nations, including Gentiles, are part of the Messiah’s saving work. The other options imply a restricted scope that this scene does not support, since Gentiles are explicitly included in the praise and recognition given to Jesus.
