The Return from Egypt

Saint Matthew - Chapter 2


Cairo Citadel, from Mt Mokatam. J-J Tissot
[19] Defuncto autem Herode, ecce angelus Domini apparuit in somnis Joseph in Aegypto,
But when Herod was dead, behold an angel of the Lord appeared in sleep to Joseph in Egypt,

[20] dicens : Surge, et accipe puerum, et matrem ejus, et vade in terram Israel : defuncti sunt enim qui quaerebant animam pueri.
Saying: Arise, and take the child and his mother, and go into the land of Israel. For they are dead that sought the life of the child.

[21] Qui consurgens, accepit puerum, et matrem ejus, et venit in terram Israel.
Who arose, and took the child and his mother, and came into the land of Israel.



Returning from Egypt. J-J Tissot
[22] Audiens autem quod Archelaus regnaret in Judaea pro Herode patre suo, timuit illo ire : et admonitus in somnis, secessit in partes Galilaeae.
But hearing that Archelaus reigned in Judea in the room of Herod his father, he was afraid to go thither: and being warned in sleep retired into the quarters of Galilee.

[23] Et veniens habitavit in civitate quae vocatur Nazareth : ut adimpleretur quod dictum est per prophetas : Quoniam Nazaraeus vocabitur.
And coming he dwelt in a city called Nazareth: that it might be fulfilled which was said by prophets: That he shall be called a Nazarene.



Saint Luke - Chapter 2


Jesus and His Mother. J-J Tissot
[39] Et ut perfecerunt omnia secundum legem Domini, reversi sunt in Galilaeam in civitatem suam Nazareth.
And after they had performed all things according to the law of the Lord, they returned into Galilee, to their city Nazareth.

[40] Puer autem crescebat, et confortabatur plenus sapientia : et gratia Dei erat in illo.
And the child grew, and waxed strong, full of wisdom; and the grace of God was in him.







Totus tuus ego sum 
Et omnia mea tua sunt;
Tecum tutus semper sum:
Ad Jesum per Mariam
