Herod destroying all the boy babies, 2 years old and under, of Bethlehem is another case of world of politics and demon power.
         Matthew 2:16  Then Herod, when he saw that he was mocked of the wise men, was exceeding wroth, and sent forth, and slew all the children that were in Bethlehem, and in all the coasts thereof, from two years old and under, according to the time which he had diligently inquired of the wise men.
