The Roots of the English Word “Worship”
In the English language, worship is an important word. It comes from ancient Anglo-Saxon and means “worth-ship”—to ascribe ultimate worth to something or someone. Matthew is portraying the nature of the newborn Jesus in ultimate terms, meaning that there is no one else worthy of worship except him.
