The same general reason, that is, the danger of extinction, caused Israel in its national infancy and the infant Jesus (cf. Genesis 42:1–43:34; 45:18; 46:3, 4; Ezekiel 16:4–6; Jeremiah 31:20) to sojourn in Egypt. [6] The verse has two textual variants: one is the standard reading of "Out of Egypt I called my son" and a second is found in ...
Jerome: This is not in the LXX ; but in Osee according to the genuine Hebrew text we read; Israel is my child, and I have loved him, and, from Egypt have I called my Son; where the LXX render, Israel is my child, and I have loved him, and called my sons out of Egypt. [4] Jerome: (In Osee 11:2.) The Evangelist cites this text, because it refers ...
The gospel links the escape to a verse from scripture, which it interprets as a prophecy: "Out of Egypt I called my son." [ 19 ] This was a reference to the departure of the Hebrews from Egypt under Moses , so the quote suggests that Matthew saw the life of Jesus as recapitulating the story of the Jewish people, with Judea representing Egypt ...

Propp argues that, assuming that this episode derives from the Jahwist ("J") source, links God's attack with Moses's killing of the Egyptian taskmaster (Ex. 2:11–12), which had not yet been expiated. Just as the paschal sacrifice would later on cause the Angel of Death to "pass over" the homes ...
Alleged "Mary's well" in Nazareth, 1917. In Matthew 2:23, the return to Nazareth is said to be a fulfilment of the prophetic word, "He shall be called a Nazarene".It is not clear which Old Testament verse Matthew might have had in mind; many commentators suggest it is Isaiah 11:1, where it says "A shoot will come up from the stump of Jesse; from his roots a Branch will bear fruit" (): the ...
In verse 25, Noah refers to Shem and Japheth as the "brethren" of Canaan, whereas in verse 18 they are identified as his uncles. The Table of Nations presents Canaan and Mizraim (Egypt) among the sons of Ham (10:6). In the Psalms, Egypt is equated with Ham. [14] [15] A land claim on Canaan which fell under the rule of New Kingdom Egypt in the ...
