Orthodox ☦️ Christian Feast of the Nativity
In Micah 5:2, there is a prophecy that reveals that Bethlehem would be the birthplace of the Messiah.Micah 5:1-2:
1 Marshal your troops, O city of troops,
for a siege is laid against us.
They will strike Israel's ruler
on the cheek with a rod.
2 "But you, Bethlehem Ephrathah,
though you are small among the clans of Judah,
out of you will come for me
one who will be ruler over Israel,
whose origins are from of old,
from ancient times."
(New International Version translation)
