The Return to Nazareth
Matthew 2:19-23
- After Herod had died, an angel of the Lord appeared in a dream to Joseph in Egypt
- saying, “Get up, take the child and his mother, and go to the land of Israel, for those who were seeking the child’s life are dead.”
- So he got up and took the child and his mother and returned to the land of Israel.
- But when he heard that Herod’s son Archelaus was now ruler of Judea, he was afraid to go there, and being warned in a dream he withdrew to the district of Galilee.
- Then he went and settled in a town called Nazareth to fulfill what was spoken through the prophets, that He will be called a Nazarene.
