Day 22 Matthew 2:1-6
After Jesus was born in Bethlehem in Judea, during the time
of King Herod, Magi from the east came to Jerusalem and asked, “Where is the
one who has been born king of the Jews? We saw his star in the east and have
come to worship him.”
When King Herod heard this he was disturbed, and all
Jerusalem with him. When he had called together all the people’s chief priests
and teachers of the law, he asked them where the Christ was to be born. “In
Bethlehem in Judea,” they replied, “for this is what the prophet has written:
“‘But you, Bethlehem, in the land of Judah, are
by no means least among the rulers of Judah; for out of you will come a ruler
who will be the shepherd of my people Israel.’”
