Ang Pagbabalik mula sa Ehipto patungo sa Nazaret

Pagkamatay ni Haring Herodes, isang anghel ng Panginoon ang nag-utos kay Jose na dalhin sina Maria at Jesus pabalik sa lupain ng Israel. Noon, si Jesus ay nasa pagitan ng dalawa hanggang limang taong gulang.

Nang malaman ni Jose na si Arquelao, na anak ni Haring Herodes, ang namumuno sa Judea, natakot siya dahil napakasama ng hari. Kaya matapos siyang managinip muli, bumalik sila sa Nazaret sa Galilea.

Sa gayon, natupad ang sinabi ng mga propeta: “Si Jesus ay tatawaging taga-Nazaret,” kahit na Siya ay ipinanganak sa Betlehem.

Pagbasa sa Kaligiran: The Return from Egypt

19 After Herod died, an angel of the Lord appeared in a dream to Joseph in Egypt 20 and said, “Get up, take the child and his mother and go to the land of Israel, for those who were trying to take the child’s life are dead.”

21 So he got up, took the child and his mother and went to the land of Israel. 22 But when he heard that Archelaus, who ruled from 4BC to AD6, was reigning in Judea in place of his father Herod, he was afraid to go there. Having been warned in a dream, he withdrew to the district of Galilee, 23 and he went and lived in a town called Nazareth. So was fulfilled what was said through the prophets: “He will be called a Nazarene.”
Matthew 2:19-23
