March 20th,2008 A: “Gold is a precious metal that symbolizes Jesus’ identity as a King. Frankincense, which gives off a pleasant aroma when burned and whose smoke rises to heaven, is used in religious ceremonies to symbolize that Jesus is God. Myrrh is an aromatic ointment used at the time to prepare the bodies of the dead for burial. It symbolizes the death that Jesus will suffer for us. Thus the three gifts remind us that Jesus is Human, Divine, and will suffer for God’s People.
