nsb - Matthew:2:13-18

nsb@Matthew:2:13 @ When they left, the angel of God appeared to Joseph in a dream and said: »Herod is looking to kill the young child. Arise, take the child and his mother and escape to Egypt. Stay there until I tell you to leave.«

nsb@Matthew:2:14 @ Joseph took the child and his mother to Egypt.

nsb@Matthew:2:15 @ They did not return until the death of Herod. The words spoken by Jehovah through the prophet were fulfilled: »I called my son out of Egypt.« (Hosea strkjv@11:1)

nsb@Matthew:2:16 @ Herod saw that the astrologers tricked him and he was furious. He sent soldiers to kill all the boys two years old and younger in or near Bethlehem. This matched the time he learned from the astrologers.

nsb@Matthew:2:17 @ Jeremiahs prophecy came true:

nsb@Matthew:2:18 @ »A sound was heard in Ramah, the sound of crying in bitter grief. Rachel is weeping for her children. She would not be comforted, because they were dead.«
