Hi Buz,
I was under the impression that "Bethlehem Ephratah" referred to the clan of Bethlehem (from Caleb's second wife Ephrathah) not a town called Bethlehem.
The "prophesy" also seems to be referring to a military leader who will defeat the Assyrians. How do you get that a virgin will give birth to the Christ in Bethlehem out of this?
