Micah 5:1

The birth of Christ in Bethlehem: his reign and spiritual conquests.

1 Now you will be devastated, you daughter of a robber. They have placed a blockade against us, with a rod they will strike the jaw of the judge of Israel. ^{▼▼5:1 Daughter of the robber: Some understand this of Babylon; which robbed and pillaged the temple of God: others understand it of Jerusalem; by reason of the many rapines and oppressions committed there.(Challoner)}
