Bethlehem
Yes. Matthew says that Bethlehem was the home town of Mary and Joseph, and that Jesus was born there. Luke also says that Jesus was born in Bethlehem, but in this story, Nazareth is the home town of Mary and Joseph.
Bethlehem
In Matthew's Gospel, Bethlehem was the home town of Joseph and Mary. Only when returning home from Egypt did they turn aside and travel to Nazareth in Galilee, having been warned in a dream that Bethlehem remained unsafe. Thus Joseph was probably from Bethlehem. In Luke's Gospel, Nazareth was the home town of Joseph and Mary. They only spent a brief period in Bethlehem for the census of Quirinius. Thus Joseph was probably from Nazareth.
It doesn't.
They went from Galilee to Bethlehem because of the Roman census. Which meant that Joseph had to be in his home town along with his wife, Mary.
In Luke's Gospel, Mary and Joseph went to Bethlehem to be counted in the census of Quirinius, although the Gospel does not mention the census again after they left Nazareth. Mary gave birth to Jesus in in a manger at Bethlehem, after which they were visited by shepherds and they then travelled to Jerusalem and back to Nazareth.In Matthew's Gospel, Mary and Joseph had a house, and Bethlehem seems to have been their home town. When Jesus was born in Bethlehem, magi came to visit him. Mary and Joseph were warned not to go to Jerusalem, but to flee from Bethlehem to Egypt.
Galilee was were she travelled from to Bethlehem when pregnant
They travelled to Bethlehem to be taxed according to the king's commandment; and Jesus was born in Bethlehem.
Joseph and Mary were traveling as a decree had gone out by Augustus that all must register in their own town. So Joseph was traveling with Mary to Bethlehem.
