2:18b Yosef’s family return to Nazareth

Rachel weeping for her children and she didn’t want to be comforted

because her children were no more.

19After King Herod died, a messenger of the Lord appeared to Yosef in Egypt in a dream 20and said, “Get up and take the child and his mother and go back to the land of Israel, because the ones wanting to kill him have died.” 21So Yosef got up and took the child and his mother and went back to Israel.

22But when he heard that Archelaus was reigning over Yudea instead of his father Herod, and also having been warning in a dream, he left Yudea and went to the Galilee area. 23[ref]Once they got there, he settled into the town of Nazareth, so that what had been spoken through the prophets would be fulfilled: “He will be called a Nazarene.”
