Catena Aurea · Matthäusevangelium 2
Mt 2, 9English original
And, lo, the star, which they saw in the east, went before them, till it came and stood over where the young Child was.
(ord.) Or, the star is the illumination of faith, which leads him to the nearest aid; while they turn aside to the Jews, the Magi lose it; so those who seek counsel of the bad, lose the true light.
