"Now when Jesus was born in Bethlehem of Judaea in the
days of Herod the king, behold, there came wise men from the east to Jerusalem,

the east, and are come to worship him." - Matthew 2:1-2
When Herod the king heard the wise men, he demanded of the
chief priests and scribes where Christ should be born. And they said unto him,
In Bethlehem of Judaea: for thus it is written by the prophet, And thou
Bethlehem, in the land of Juda, art not the least among the princes of Juda:
for out of thee shall come a Governor, that shall rule my people Israel.
