A:In Matthew's Gospel, King Herod sought to have Jesus killed, forcing Joseph to flee with Mary and Jesus to Egypt. When Herod had died, they felt it safe to return to their home in Bethlehem but, being warned in a dream, turned aside and travelled north to Galilee, where they settled in a city called Nazareth.

In Luke's Gospel, King Herod had no interest in Jesus. After his birth, the young family was free to go to the temple in Jerusalem, Herod's capital city, and then travel peacefully to Nazareth, which was already their home town. They even returned each year for the Passover.
