Hey, Thank you Terry, you are a gentleman.  I like hearing praise and getting "way to go's"  Also, I appreciate the new info.  I Shoulda known a carpenter would not be rich--too seasonal. 
Joseph Smith was also poor--interesting parallel between him and Messiah, huh?

Way to go Blaine.  You are one of the few to know the truth about the wise men.  Almost everyone believes that there were three and that they came to the stable when Jesus was born.  The only question you missed was number four.
When Mary brought her offering (Luke 2:23-24), she brought two doves.   Leviticus, chapter twelve, tells us that this offering is to be a lamb, unless she is unable to offer a lamb, in which case, she can substitute two doves.  THe answer then, is they were too poor to offer a lamb.
Blessings,
Terry
