There are two different stories of the nativity of Jesus in the New Testament. In Matthew's version, it would have been too dangerous for Joseph and Mary to take Jesus to the temple in Jerusalem, and instead they fled from Bethlehem to Egypt, only attempting to return to Bethlehem after Herod had died. In Luke's version, Joseph and Mary took Jesus to the temple in Jerusalem on their way from Bethlehem to Nazareth. At the temple, they met Simeon, who had been promised that he would not die until he had seen the Messiah.
