People's Commentary (NT)
Matthew 2:6
And thou Bethlehem. The quotation is made freely from the
Septuagint version (Greek), which was in common use, and from which the
Savior and his apostles constantly quoted. The Hebrew is literally,
"But thou Bethlehem Ephrata, too small to be among the thousands of
Judah (i.e., the towns where the heads of thousands resided, the chief
towns in the distribution of the tribes), out of thee shall come forth
one who is to be the ruler of Israel", Micah 5:1.
Princes of Judah. Put for towns, where the princes or head of
thousands lived.
