Between Astronomy and Revelation: Reassessing the Star of Bethlehem in Matthew 2:1–12 by Sugihyono, Nicolien Meggy Sumakul, Mangiring Sinaga, Natassa Sandriana, Norlina Rambu Jola Kalunga, Mulyani Susana

“…Employing a qualitative, literature-based method, the research critically examines various astronomical hypotheses—including planetary conjunctions, comets, and supernovae—alongside symbolic and theological readings grounded in biblical and patristic sources. The findings demonstrate that naturalistic explanations fail to fully account for the unique characteristics of the star, such as its guided movement, selective visibility, and stationary positioning above a specific location. …”
