The Feast of the Epiphany

The Feast of the Epiphany (epiphany means "manifestation" or "revelation") is still celebrated on the 6th of January by eastern Christian churches. The feast probably began in those churches in the Middle East strongly influenced by the Gospel of John, who proclaimed of Jesus Christ :

And the word became flesh
and made his dwelling among us,
and we saw his glory,
the Father's only Son,
full of grace and truth.

John 1:14
