Last week, we learned more about the Magi visiting the Messiah as a toddler. They also visited King Herod - a terrible man of unbridled fury and a ruthless killer. Today, we'll learn more about this pretender king, and even more about the beautiful way in which God crafted the Old Testament to point to Jesus Christ as the true and coming King.--The Old Testament can easily seem like a long string of violent stories about ancient peoples, but in fact, it's a lengthy proof-text for why we need a Savior and who that Savior will be. It all becomes clear as we study the New Testament and the completion of God's plan for redemption.
