Spiritism was presented to us by the Spirit world so we here on earth may perfect ourselves and prepare the earth to reach a higher plane of existence. Using Spiritism, we are expected to improve our collective behavior. Spiritism was brought to us via the work of Allan Kardec. In 1857, in response to the growing interest in spirits and mediums, Allan Kardec (pen name of the French teacher and educator Hippolyte Leon Denizard Rivail) organized a series of questions designed to discern the exact nature and wishes of the spirits. He did not accept information from just one medium, but verified the response to a question from multiple mediums throughout Europe. Allan Kardec wrote a total of five books documenting the answers to his questions. The basic tenants of Spiritism are: 1. Love God. 2. Do unto others as you would have others do unto you. 3. Practice justice. 4. Forgive all who offend you. 5. Make amends for our own wrong doing. The spirits revealed to us the basic facts of our existence: 1. Your soul is immortal. 2. You travel through multiple lives as a process to learn to love, be fraternal, and be selfless. 3. The goal of God is for every spirit to one day be pure. 4. There is no eternal hell, it is a station for souls who are materialistic and have an excessive love of self. 5. There are many levels of heaven. Heaven is not a place where we have eternal leisure, but one of on-going work to help others. 6. Life on earth is like a school. You are assigned events in your life and how you react and behave will determine your spiritual progress."

Each Christmas, adults and children alike delight at the story of the kings from the East who followed the star to Bethlehem to offer gifts to the newborn Christ. While this familiar tale is recorded in the Gospel of Matthew, another little-known version later emerged that claimed to be the eyewitness account of the wise men. This ancient manuscript has lain hidden for centuries in the vaults of the Vatican Library, but through the determined persistence of a young scholar, Brent Landau, this astonishing discovery has been translated into English for the very first time as the Revelation of the Magi. Everything we know about the wise men is based on only a few verses from the Bible. With the Revelation of the Magi, we can now read the story from the Magi's perspective. Readers will learn of the Magi's prophecies of God's incarnation from the beginning of time, their startling visitation in the form of a star, the teachings they receive from the baby Jesus, and the wise men's joyous return to their homeland to spread the good news. This ancient version of the Christmas story is guaranteed to astonish and delight. It will also raise larger questions of the significance and meaning of Christ's birth, and the mission to spread the good news to every corner of the globe. All the drama and intrigue of the brief description of Jesus's birth in the Bible is filled out in greater, more colorful detail, offering for the first time the complete story of these beloved characters.

While scholarly, the commentary is not overly technical and so is accessible to pastor, student, and layperson alike. C. H. Spurgeon commented on Jamieson-Fausset-Brown, It contains so great a variety of information that if a man had no other exposition he would find himself at no great loss if he possessed and used it diligently.
