Why was Jesus Christ born in Israel?
I've been wondering why God chose Israel for Jesus to be born in and not another country or continent? Why Israel specifically?

Jesus was born in Israel because of the covenant between God and Abraham. Genesis 17:6-7 tells us the God gave the land Canaan to Abraham and his descendants. Today Canaan is known as Israel. In Genesis 12, we read that the Messiah would be born from the bloodline of Abraham.
