it parallels the end of the Joads' journey to the end of the Israelites' exodus and relates both of their troubles upon their arrival in their so-called promised lands.
The Joad family's flight in "The Grapes of Wrath" parallels the Old Testament story of the Israelites' journey from Egypt to the promised land. Both stories involve displacement, hardship, and a search for a better life in a new land. Additionally, like the Israelites, the Joads face moments of despair and uncertainty but also exhibit resilience and hope in the face of adversity.
If you are referring to Jesus Christ then nowhere in the Old Testament is His flight into Egypt mentioned. This is referred to in the New Testament in Matthew 2: 14-15. Various Old Testament characters went down into Egypt - Abraham, Joseph and the prophet Jeremiah are some.
In the book of psalms it says that they would cast lots for my clothes. and the Roman soldiers at the cross did cast lots for Jesus clothes.

The Old Testament.
The major sources used by the author of Matthew's Gospel were Mark's Gospel and the 'Q' Document. However, it is well known that, more than any other gospel author, Matthew made use of the Old Testament, although not just the Torah (Pentateuch). In some cases, Matthew showed Jesus as fulfilling prophecies of the Old Testament, while in other cases, he used parallels. There are several instances where Matthew parallelled the Hebrew scriptures in describing events in the life of Jesus. For example, Matthew said that Joseph's father was Jacob (whereas Luke said that his father was Heli), just as in the Old Testament, Joseph's father was called Jacob; and the infancy narrative, with its flight and return from Egypt, parallels the story of Moses in several ways.
Abraham is first mentioned in the Old Testament.
Wisdom is found in both the Old Testament and the New Testament of the Bible. In the Old Testament, books like Proverbs, Ecclesiastes, and Job contain teachings on wisdom. In the New Testament, wisdom is also discussed in passages such as James 3:13-18.

Jesus was in the new testament and not the old testament.
