Scofield Reference Notes[1] King "The King" is one of the divine titles Ps 10:16 and Song used in the worship of the Church 1Tim 1:17 but Christ is never called "King of the Church." He is "King of the Jews" Mt 2:2 and Lord and "Head of the Church" Eph 1:22,23 See Scofield Note: "Mt 16:18" See Scofield Note: "Heb 12:23" Mt 16:18 Heb 12:23
People's New Testament 2:2 Where is he that is born King of the Jews? Their question shows two things: (1) That they partook of the general expectation that about this time there would appear in the East a Ruler divinely appointed to his mission. The works of profane writers of this period show that this expectation was general. (2) It is plain that the wise men misapprehended the mission of Christ, and expected him to be a secular king. We have seen his star in the east. No certain conclusion can be reached as to what this appearance in the heavens was, and it is useless to enter into the discussion. It seemed a part of God's plan that Gentiles as well as Jews should offer homage to the infant King. Matthew 2:2 Parallel Commentaries
