Well it's an auspicious day on the calendar for fireworks, in any case.

"In Western Christianity, the feast commemorates principally (but not solely) the visit of the Magi to the Christ Child, and thus Jesus Christ's physical manifestation to the Gentiles."

"Play well!"

λέγω • (légō)

I put in order, arrange, gather
I choose, count, reckon
I say, speak
I call, name (usually in the passive voice)

lego#Latin

Anagrams:

Goel, Loge, Ogle, goel, loge, ogle

And speaking of big bangs, where's KIC 9832227? Big announcement on Jan 6th (2017), and then it was "Oh, never mind."

Star predicted to explode in 2022

Yeah. Three Kings Day. When I was a kid we moved to Puerto Rico and I was surprised to find out that Three Kings Day was a much bigger deal than Christmas down there.

Fun comments in here. I might as well add in the wisest king ever, a king unlike the kings of any other nations. Can Do!

The unused and probably related verb קול (qul) has to do with speaking or addressing an assembly, or perhaps even with the sound that emanates from an assembly. Noun קול (qol) means voice, speech or proclamation. It may also describe the sounds animals make and even that of musical instruments, the sea or other items.

BDB Theological Dictionary insists that the collection that the name Qoheleth refers to is a collection of sentences, but such a distinction is not evident in the usage of the nouns and verbs that this name is related to. It rather refers to the audience or an assembly that forms around a Public Orator.

Hebrew Bible order of assembly:

13. The end of the matter, all has been heard; Fear God, and keep his commandments; for this is the whole duty of man:
14. For God shall bring every deed into judgment, with every secret thing, whether it is good, or whether it is evil:
1. And it came to pass in the days of Ahasuerus, this is Ahasuerus who reigned, from Hodu to Kush, over one hundred and twenty seven provinces..
