The Bible speaks of magicians in several places. They were present in ancient Egypt and Babylon. Magicians typically have a negative connotation in the Bible. But, magicians (a.k.a., Magi / wise men) were present just after the birth of Jesus Christ. The Magi who visited the infant Jesus have an important spiritual truth. They represent people who are drawn from the East by God. The star that they followed as well as their gifts of gold, frankincense and myrrh have very important spiritual meanings.
