A:This is a reference to Hosea 11:1. The author of Matthew was drawing a series of parallels between Moses and Jesus, and Hosea 11:1 fitted this, not only because Jesus would be called out of Egypt but also because of the gospel allusions to Moses - Hosea was referring to the Exodus when he wrote: "When Israel was a child, then I loved him, and called my son out of Egypt.
