ἐπεφάνη δὲ καὶ τῇ Μαρίᾳ καὶ τῷ Ἰωσήφ. ἐν ἐκείνῃ δὲ τῇ ὥρᾳ καὶ ὁ ἀστὴρ ἐφάνη ἐν τῇ ἀντολῇ τοῖς μάγοις πρὸς δύο ἐτῶν τῆς αὐτῶν εἰς Ἱερουσαλὴμ καὶ Βηθλεὲμ ἀφίξεως, ὅτε καὶ ἀκριβῶς ὁ Ἡρῴδης ἐπυνθάνετο <παρ᾿> αὐτῶν τῶν μάγων τὸν χρόνον τοῦ φανέντος ἀστέρος καὶ ἤκουσε παρ᾿ αὐτῶν ὅτι ἀπὸ διετοῦς καὶ κατωτέρω, ἃ καὶ αὐτὸ τὸ ῥῆμα ῶν Ἐπιφανείων ἐποιεῖτο τὴν ἐπωνυμίαν ἐκ τοῦ τὸν Ἡρῴδην λέγειν »τοῦ φανέντος ἀστέρος«.
