The Scriptures of the Old Testament had both described the family from whence the Messiah was to arise, viz. the family of David, Psalms 132:11, and the town, which was Bethlehem, Micah 5:2; which was David's father's town, where he lived also, till God called him out to the kingdom, 1 Samuel 17:15, 1 Samuel 20:6.
