A Ruler Is Predicted
Over 500 years before Jesus was born Micah wrote the following words (tis is the Book of Micah in the Bible, verses 5:2-5)
"But you, O Bethlehem Ephrathah, are only a small village in Judah. yet a ruler of Israel will come from you, one whose origins are from the distant past. The people of Israel will be abandoned to their enemies until the time when the woman in labor gives birth to her son. Then at last his fellow countrymen will return from exile to their own land. And he will stand to lead his flock with the LORD's strength, in the magesty of the name of the LORD his God. Then his people will live there undisturbed, for he will be highly honored all around the world. And he will be the source of our peace."
