Carl W. Conrad et al,
 
Sorry for adding confusion to this discussion.  I just thought it  worthwhile 
to check ATR's comment, not that he translated TON CRONON  TOU FAINOMENOU 
ASTEROS  "the age of the star's  appearing."    I assume that Herod found out 
from the Magi  the star first appeared two years earlier according to verse 16.   
I  personally favor the NAB "the time of the star's appearing."   Are  there 
any objections to this rendering?  Perhaps Mt 2:7 has been  beaten to death!!!
 
Carl W. Conrad, thanks for reminding me in a kind manner to be  more precise 
in the future in my terse comments!
 
Rob Redden
