3 Because Herod the king heard this, he was terribly shaken, and all Yerushalayim with him. 4 And assembling all the Rashei Hakohanim and Sofrim of the people, he inquired of them the place where Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach was to be born. 5 They told him, In Beit-Lechem Yehudah; because so it stands written by the Navi: 6 And YOU, BEIT-LECHEM, (Bethlehem, Mic 5:1[2]) in eretz Yehudah are by no means least among the shtetlach (towns) or ruling2:6b alafim of Yehudah; because out of you will come a Moshel (Ruler) who will be the Ro’eh Ami Yisroel.
7 Then Herod secretly summoned the chachamim and ascertained from them the exact date of the manifestation of the KOCHAV. 8 Then he sent them to Beit-Lechem, saying, Go and make a thorough search for the yeled (child); as soon as you have found him, report to me, so that I, as you, may come and fall down before him.
