17 Then was fulfilled that which was spoken through Jeremias the prophet, saying, 18 A voice has been heard in Rama, weeping, and great lamentation: Rachel weeping [for] her children, and would not be comforted, because they are not. 19 But Herod having died, behold, an angel of [the] Lord appears in a dream to Joseph in Egypt, saying, 20 Arise, take to [thee] the little child and its mother, and go into the land of Israel: for they who sought the life of the little child are dead. 21 And he arose and took to [him] the little child and its mother, and came into the land of Israel; 22 but having heard that 'Archelaus reigns over Judaea, instead of Herod his father,' he was afraid to go there; and having been divinely instructed in a dream, he went away into the parts of Galilee, 23 and came and dwelt in a town called Nazareth; so that that should be fulfilled which was spoken through the prophets, He shall be called a Nazaraean.
