Matthew 2:4 - Forerunner Commentary

Matthew 2:4

2 saying, ^a“Where is He who has been born King of the Jews? For we have seen ^bHis star in the East and have come to worship Him.”

3 When Herod the king heard this, he was troubled, and all Jerusalem with him.

4 And when he had gathered all ^athe chief priests and ^bscribes of the people together, ^che inquired of them where the Christ was to be born.

5 So they said to him, “In Bethlehem of Judea, for thus it is written by the prophet:

6 ‘But^a you, Bethlehem, in the land of Judah,
Are not the least among the rulers of Judah;
For out of you shall come a Ruler
^bWho will shepherd My people Israel.’ ”
