Bethlehem

Bethlehem is about six miles south of Jerusalem in Israel. Bethlehem was the birthplace of David (1 Samuel 16) and the birth place of Jesus Christ (Matthew 2:1).Remarkably, the Prophet Micah predicted that the Messiah of Israel would be born in the small village of Bethlehem about 700 years before the birth of Christ (Micah 5:2; Matthew 2:6).

On the horizon in the picture below is the Church of the Nativity that marks the traditional place of Christ’s birth. This is the view the shepherds would have had on that awesome night about 2,000 years ago (Luke 2:8).
