Today I am remembering the loss of infants, male, 2 years old and under that were slaughtered in Bethlehem. As Bethlehem grieves, we grieve.
Matthew 2:16 When Herod saw that the wise men had tricked him, he was furious. So he gave an order to kill all the baby boys in Bethlehem and in the surrounding area who were two years old or younger. This was in keeping with the time he learned from the wise men. 17 So what God had said through the prophet Jeremiah came true:
18 “A voice was heard in Ramah
of painful crying and deep sadness:
Rachel crying for her children.
She refused to be comforted, because her children are dead.” Jeremiah 31:15
of painful crying and deep sadness:
Rachel crying for her children.
She refused to be comforted, because her children are dead.” Jeremiah 31:15
