This is the City
by PamFord Davis 'This is the city (Los Angeles)" So began another Dragnet episode. Weekly, Sergeant Joe Friday simultaneously informed and entertained television viewers. Audiences vicariously walked crowded streets and dark alleys of the highly populated city. It is as if I can hear Matthew, the Gospel writer, saying, 'This is the city (Bethlehem)." "But you Bethlehem, in the land of Judah, are not least among the rulers of Judah; for out of you shall come a Ruler who will shepherd My people Israel (Matthew 2:6 NKJ)." This is the city, Bethlehem (interpreted as house of bread). Within its boundaries, Mary birthed the bread of life.
