Where did Jesus escape from King Herod?
There are two, quite different gospel stories of the birth of Jesus. In Luke's Gospel, Joseph and Mary came from Nazareth to Bethlehem to take part in a census. Jesus was born in Bethlehem and, a few days later, the family travelled to Jerusalem for the Temple ritual, without any apparent concern regarding King Herod. They then returned peacefully to Nazareth. At no time in this account, was Jesus ever in any danger from Herod. In Matthew's Gospel, Bethlehem appears to be the home town of Joseph and Mary. After the birth of Jesus, King Herod sought to have him killed, so the young family fled from Bethlehem to safety in Egypt. After the death of Herod, they began to return to Bethlehem, but being warned in a dream, turned aside and travelled to a new home in Nazareth.
Is Joseph mad at god for getting Mary laid?
In the bible Joseph was not mad at god ever for getting Mary laid.
How did Mary and Joseph know that they needed to flee to Egypt?
In Matthew 2:13-23, Joseph is told in a dream to go to Egypt because King Herod wanted to kill him. If you recall the story of the Magi, they were originally sent by Herod as well, but they avoided him instead of telling him where Jesus was. Herod was jealous that there would be another king rising up among the people, which is why he wanted Jesus dead. So Joseph moved to Egypt to protect his family.
Why was Joseph going to return to Bethlehem after the birth of Jesus?
A:It is in Matthew's Gospel that Joseph and Mary were going to return to Bethlehem some time after the birth of Jesus. In Luke's Gospel, Joseph had no reason ever to go to Bethlehem again, and the gospel makes it plain that although the young family travelled from Nazareth to Jerusalem each year for the Passover, they never went to Bethlehem. Bethlehem, not Nazareth, was the home town of Joseph and Mary in Matthew's Gospel. They fled from Bethlehem to Egypt for fear of King Herod, who sought to have Jesus killed. After Herod had died, they began the return journey to their home in Bethlehem but, being warned in a dream, Joseph turned aside with his family and travelled to Galilee instead. There they settled in a city called Nazareth (Matthew 2:23).

What is told about the youth of Jesus at Nazareth?
Only a small portion recorded facts were ever told about Jesus as a child. Initially the most popular come from most of the gospels that depict Jesus Christ's life as a new born. Here is speaks first of rejoicing by Magi and Angels and then goes right into the flight of Mary, Joseph and the baby Christ into Egypt. One popular narrative of Jesus Christ when He was 12 is also spoken of in the Gospel of Luke. Here the young 12 year old Jesus leaves both Mary and Joseph to preach in the temple. While there, the elder Temple priests lay in astonishment that a boy at the age of 12 were to have such wisdom and authority of the scriptures. However other than the stories of Jesus as a baby and a 12 year old boy, there are not many other stories spoken about a child Jesus throughout the Gospels.
