The Holy Family, consisting of Mary, Joseph, and the infant Jesus, fled to Egypt shortly after Jesus' birth to escape King Herod's decree to kill all male children in Bethlehem. This flight is believed to have occurred around 4-6 BC, based on historical estimates of Herod's reign and the timeline of Jesus' birth. They remained in Egypt until Herod's death, which is typically dated to 4 BC, after which they returned to Nazareth in Galilee.
