It is clear that Jesus, Mary and Joseph did not live long in Egypt. All thre of them returned to Nazareth soon after the death of king Herod. Here Joseph fled to Egypt when he was warned of Herods desire to kill Jesus in a dream and angel told him to return to Nazareth as well.

∙ 13y agoThe Bible does not say exactly how long. It does, however, say that they returned at the death of Herod, which was in 4 BC, the same year that we believe to be Jesus's birth year. This means that they must have stayed in Egypt for less than a year. However, the story of the flight into Egypt is probably just a story, written in order to link Jesus to Moses. It probably didn't actually happen. (After all, if all these infants were killed in search of Jesus, then how could the Nazareans be angry with Jesus because he had grown up as just another child?)
