Matthew 2.13-15
Little did Mary and Joseph know that their new financial resources would be needed so quickly. When the magi left, an angel appeared to Joseph and warned him to flee to Egypt. Herod, who had been duped by the magi and who jealously guarded his throne, would be eager to eliminate anyone identified as the new King of the Jews. Joseph obeyed immediately. In the middle of the night he, Mary, and Jesus began their flight to Egypt, where they stayed until Herod's death. By God’s miraculous provision, Jesus was safe. His life was spared so that one day He could give His life as a ransom for us.
