Mary and Joseph traveled to Bethlehem because of a Roman Census. A census was for the purpose of counting people for taxation.

Now here's where it gets interesting.

Israel was living under Roman occupation because their forefathers forsook Him in favor of a human king. 

When they chose a human king, God warned them that he (the king) would tax them and they would become his slaves (1 Samuel 8:17)

Consider this: Was it merely a coincidence that the very God the Israelites rejected in favor of a human king was now being born as a man in Bethlehem—because of a tax census?

Through a pagan king’s decree, God fulfilled the prophecy of Bethlehem, becoming flesh to be the King of kings. Even in the midst of worldly authority, God’s divine plan unfolded.🤯

 Principalities... For some reason people think that means demons or something...  

 and does not Bethlehem translate into something like house of bread ? 

 It's called the city of David in the Bible. But it means house of bread.
