What did the prophet Micah say about the birth of Jesus?
Another answer from our community:Micah 5:2 (KJV): "But thou, Bethlehem Ephratah, though thou be little among the thousands of Judah, yet out of thee shall he come forth unto me that is to be ruler in Israel; whose goings forth have been from of old, from everlasting." This has been read as a prophecy by the Old Testament prophet Micah that Jesus would be born in Bethlehem.While a long stretch, the King James translastion could be read as a possible foretelling of the birth of Jesus, based on the use of the words "from everlasting." But, when we look at the original, we find a much more ordinary statement, relevant to the political times that Micah was writing about: (Jewish Tanach), "And you, Bethlehem Ephrathah-you should have been the lowest of the clans of Judah-from you [he] shall emerge for Me, to be a ruler over Israel; and his origin is from of old, from days of yore." Here we find "from days of yore", which the King James translators mistranslated as "from everlasting."Thus we find that Micah, who lived long before the time of Jesus, knew nothing of him and said nothing about his birth."But thou, Bethlehem Ephratah, though thou be little among the thousands of Judah, yet out of thee shall he come forth unto me that is to be ruler in Israel; whose goings forth have been from of old, from everlasting." Matthew 2:5-6The gospel of Matthew claims that Jesus' birth in Bethlehem fulfils this prophecy.But this is unlikely for two reasons."Bethlehem Ephratah" in Micah 5:2 refers not to a town, but to a clan: the clan of Bethlehem, who was the son of Caleb's second wife, Ephrathah see 1 Chorinicle 2:16, 2:50-52, 4:4..The prophecy does not refer to the Messiah, but rather to a military leader, as can be seen from verse 5:6 . This leader is supposed to defeat the Assyrians, which, of course, Jesus never did.It should also be noted that Matthew altered the text of Micah 5:2 by saying: "And thou Bethlehem, in the land of Juda" rather than "Bethlehem Ephratah" as is said in Micah 5:2. He did this, intentionally no doubt, to make the verse appear to refer to the town of Bethlehem rather than the family clan.
