What does Micah 5:2 mean?

But you, Bethlehem Ephrathah, even though you’re just a small town among all the clans of Judah, someone will come from you who will rule over Israel for me. His roots go way back, all the way to ancient times. Micah 5:2 - Modern Text Bible

(God promises that a new leader will come from Bethlehem, a place nobody expects. This ruler’s origins are deep and significant, connecting to God’s long-standing plans.)
