Matthew 2:8. And he sent them to Bethlehem, and said " Go and search diligently for the young child; and when ye have found him, bring me word again, that I may come and worship him also.
It was like his deep, cunning spirit to try to find out where the child was, that he might kill him. He looked upon him as a rival, as one who might rob him of his throne, so he would put him to death if he could; and, meanwhile, he would pretend that he wanted to worship him.
