Whether they are remembered on the 27th, 28th or 29th, they are now at rest having been the very first to suffer death because of Jesus of Nazareth, Messiah, Priest, King, and Lord.
Meanwhile, when Herod realized that the Magi had tricked him, he was furious and gave orders to kill all the boys in and around Beit-Lechem who were two years old or less, calculating from the time the Magi had told him. In this way were fulfilled the words spoken through the prophet Yirmeyahu, "A voice was heard in Ramah, sobbing and lamenting loudly. It was Rachel sobbing for her children and refusing to be comforted, because they are no longer alive."
-- Matthew
