Herod laughs when he realizes that the magicians speak about the arrival of a Messiah. Zebedee runs to call for some midwife. Mary is moved by the words of Simeon. Annas and other priests are called by Herod to clarify the information of the magicians. They say that the prophecies say that the Messiah will be born in Bethlehem. Herod sends the three magicians to Bethlehem. Sula gives birth to a boy. Baltazar, Melchior, and Gaspar arrive in Bethlehem. Herod is disturbed by Satan. Sula becomes jealous of all the attention given to Maria's baby. Barabbas cares for little Simon Zealot. Baltazar, Melchior and Gaspar arrive in front of the house of Sula and are received by the angel Gabriel. Jose and Maria are surprised by the visit of the three magicians. Antipas and Archelaus go to meet Herod's call. In the manger of Sula's house, Baltazar, Melchior and Gaspar know little Jesus. Sula does not seem to believe that Jesus is the Messiah. The magicians present the baby Jesus. Archelaus and Antipas are frightened by Herod's command. Baltazar, Melchior, and Gaspar refuse to return to Jerusalem, fearing Herod. Mary and Joseph make plans with Jesus. Soldiers of Herod follow the road to Bethlehem. Gabriel appears before Joseph to see that they must flee with Jesus to Egypt, for Herod wants to kill the boy. The soldiers arrive in the city to annihilate all the babies. Sula refuses to leave with Jose and Maria. A soldier catches them fleeing and raises his sword to kill Jesus. Sula and Zebedee realize that the soldiers are approaching. The angel Gabriel prevents Jesus from being attacked and has Joseph and Mary flee with the baby. Antipas does not seem to believe the father's order to kill innocent children. The soldiers invade Sula's house. A baby is spared for being a girl. One of the soldiers regrets what he did. Joseph and Mary go towards Egypt.
