Eric Vanden Eykel is a scholar of early Christianity whose work explores how biblical stories, apocryphal traditions, and later interpretation shape popular understandings of the New Testament. His research on the magi and related traditions helps readers distinguish Matthew's brief narrative from the much larger afterlife of the Christmas story.
