Joseph, Mary, and Jesus Return to Nazareth
19 Now after[a] Herod had died, behold, an angel of the Lord appeared in a dream to Joseph in Egypt, 20 saying, “Get up, take the child and his mother and go to the land of Israel, for those who were seeking the life of the child are dead.” 21 So he got up and[b] took the child and his mother and entered[c] the land of Israel.
