Herod Never Benefited From What He Heard of Jesus – Daily Devotion | 21st December 2022

Herod Never Benefited from what he heard of Jesus.

When King Herod heard this he was disturbed, and all Jerusalem with him. When he had called
together all the people’s chief priests and teachers of the law, he asked them where the
Messiah was to be born. “In Bethlehem in Judea,” they replied, “for this is what the prophet
has written: “ ‘But you, Bethlehem, in the land of Judah, are by no means least among the rulers
of Judah; for out of you will come a ruler who will shepherd my people Israel.’”

Matthew 2:3‭-‬6 NIV
