Micah
The book Micah was written by the prophet Micah.
Scriptures quoted by other authors
Matthew quoting Micah
The wise men quote:
So they (wise men) said to him (Herod),
“In Bethlehem of Judea, for thus it is written by the prophet:
‘But you, Bethlehem, in the land of Judah,
Are not the least among the rulers of Judah;
For out of you shall come a ruler
Who will shepherd My people Israel.’ ”-- Matthew 2:5-6 (NKJV)
This was probably a paraphrased quotation of Micah's prophecy:
“But you, Bethlehem Ephrathah,
Though you are little among the thousands of Judah,
Yet out of you shall come forth to Me
The one to be ruler in Israel,
Whose goings forth are from of old, from everlasting.”Therefore he shall give them up,
Until the time that she who is in labor has given birth;
Then the remnant of his brethren
Shall return to the children of Israel.
And he shall stand and feed His flock
In the strength of the LORD,
In the majesty of the name of the LORD his God;
And they shall abide,
For now he shall be great
To the ends of the earth;
And this one shall be peace.-- Micah 5:2-5 (NKJV)
