Shekinah is no where in scripture, and is actually a female deity in the Kaballah -- jewish mysticism!

Nope, it's not there either.

Thats a secular proverb that many people think is found in the Bible.
Closest thing to that in the Bible is:
"He who spareth the rod hateth his son: but he that loveth him correcteth him betimes" ( Proverbs 13:24)

The word shekinah is not found in the bible but, according to the Jewish Encyclopedia, it referred to the "majestic presence or manifestation of God which has descended to "dwell" among men" , not a female goddess.
http://www.jewishencyclopedia.com/vi...d=588&letter=S
Are there others who later used the word to refer to a female goddess?
Yes, most notably Kaballah, which uses the word Shehinah to refer to the " divine feminine" ; but that was not its original meaning.

I think Christians assume three because of the reference to "gold, frankincense, and myrrh" in the Gospel account of Christ's birth story.
But you are right. It never mentions how many wise men.
