The hometown of David and the birthplace of Jesus, the Messiah promised to come from David's line. Bethlehem begins as the setting for Ruth's redemption and David's anointing, and culminates as the fulfillment of Micah's ancient prophecy. This small town connects the patriarchal promise with the incarnation itself.
