Fulfilled what the Lord had said through the prophet: “Out of Egypt I called my son.
Then what was said through the prophet Jeremiah was fulfilled:“A voice is heard in Ramah, weeping and great mourning, Rachel weeping for her children and refusing to be comforted, because they are no more."
So was fulfilled what was said through the prophets, that he would be called a Nazarene.
Their news us bit welcome at the place. Herod the Great, king of the Jews from 37-4 BC, was murderously jealous of all rivals.
'Herod was suspicious of anyone whom he thought could try to take the throne away from him. One-time friends, servants, countless enemies, priests, nobles and all who crossed him in some way were killed. The massacre at Bethlehem is quite in character with other cruelties on record.
But God is able to protect his own and, warned by the angel, the little family escapes to Egypt.
Jesus, as Messiah, had to be born in Bethelem, makes the link with Israel as God's son, rescued from Egypt at the exodus.
Why?
Jesus is the son of the God. Matthew wrote these a few words of the profits are fulfilled.
Someone speak the welcome words but with evil heart and mind. Don't just listen but watch what he has done.
How?
There are different men around us, may the wisdom and holy spirit with me to make right decision.
