G-d' Calendar: 29th day, 1st month, year 5771

Micah 5:2
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 2:1,2
Now when Y'hshuwah was born in Bethlehem of Judaea in the days of Herod the king, behold, there came wise men from the east to Jerusalem, Saying, Where is he that is born King of the Jews? for we have seen his star in the east, and are come to worship him.

Two significant signs of recognition of Messiah, both for the religious and the secular of that day. G-d told His people in His Word through His prophet. He also revealed through the methods of pagans, although varied, He gave significant revelation that revered men of their time and belief abandoned their own status and traveled a great distance to see the King, G-d had sent.
