THE DEMONSTRATION OF THE APOSTOLIC PREACHING
Chapter 63 And again the prophet Micah speaks of the place where Christ should be born…

And again the prophet Micah speaks of the place where Christ should be born, that it should be in Bethlehem of Judæa, saying thus:

And thou, Bethlehem of Judæa, art thou the least among the princes of Judah? for out of, thee shall come a prince who shall feed my people Israel.
[229] (Micah 5:2) But Bethlehem is the native place [230] of David: so that not only in respect of the Virgin who bore Him is He of David's race, but also in respect of His birth in Bethlehem the native place of David.
