Mary, the mother of Jesus, is traditionally understood to be of Jewish descent, specifically from the region of Galilee in ancient Israel. There is no historical evidence to suggest that she was Egyptian. However, the Holy Family did flee to Egypt to escape King Herod's massacre of infants, which is a significant event in Christian tradition. This journey is often depicted in art and literature, but it does not indicate that Mary was Egyptian herself.
