THE STATE OF ZION WILL BIRTH THE MESSIAH AND GATHER THE EXILES OF ISRAEL

Micah 5:2 But you, Bethlehem Ephratah, though you be little among the thousands of Judah, yet out of you shall he come forth unto me that is to be ruler in Israel [Yeshua the Messiah]; whose goings forth have been from of old, from everlasting.

Micah 5:3 Therefore will he give them up [Isaiah 8:17: hide his face from the house of Jacob] until the time that she which travails has brought forth [Isaiah 66:8: the birth of the nation of Zion]: then the remnant of his brethren shall return unto the children of Israel [the ingathering of the exiles].
