The zeal of the Lord of hosts will accomplish this.” Micah 5:2 “But as for you Bethlehem Ephrathah, Too little to be among the clans of Judah, from you One will go forth for Me to be ruler in Israel. His goings forth are from long ago, From the days of eternity.” Zechariah 9:9–10 “Rejoice greatly daughter of Zion! Shout in triumph daughter of Jerusalem! Behold your king is coming to you; He is just and endowed with salvation, Humble, and mounted on a donkey, Even on a colt, the foal of a donkey . . . He will speak peace to the nations; and His dominion will be from sea to sea, and from the River to the ends of the earth.” NOTE: The prophets Isaiah and Micah wrote about 700 years before Jesus was born; Jeremiah 600 years, and Zechariah 500 years before the coming of Christ to earth. 1.
