What does the Bible say about the Messiah's birth in Bethlehem?

Answered in 1 source

The Bible prophesies that the Messiah will be born in Bethlehem, specifically in Micah 5:2.

Micah 5:2 states that though Bethlehem is small among the clans of Judah, out of it will come one who will be ruler over Israel. This prophecy points to the birth of Jesus Christ, who is the eternal Son of God and was born in Bethlehem. This significance is further confirmed in the New Testament when the Magi seek the newborn king and refer back to this prophecy, establishing Christ as the promised Messiah from eternal origins.
