The assumption is this: that the one searching for the Christ had arrived in Bethlehem at precisely the proper time. But how could one have known what the proper time was, and that he or she was living at that time?

The prophecy was given centuries before His Coming, and it gave no clue about the time it was to be fulfilled
(56:3)
