It's not explicitly specified, so no one knows for certain.
He traveled from Nazareth to Bethlehem with Mary, where Jesus was born. From Bethlehem he took his family to Egypt. From Egypt they returned to Nazareth.
Jesus escaped to Egypt from Bethlehem, not Nazareth. King Herod, who wanted to kill him, ordered the massacre of all infant boys in Bethlehem, prompting Joseph and Mary to flee to Egypt with Jesus to keep him safe.
Herod the Great wanted to kill Jesus. When Joseph, Mary and Jesus fled to Egypt, Herod had no authority there. Even if he could have sent men into Egypt to kill Jesus, they probably could not have found the family.
Mary , Joseph and the baby Jesus fled in the night to Egypt.
Joseph was warned in a dream to take the young child and his mother and flee to Egypt untill he hears from God again. (Matthew 2.13) So "the holy family" that fled to Egypt, were Joseph and Mary and Jesus.
According to the bible, Jesus is the son of God. He doesn't have a stepfather. Unless Mary married someone else then that man would be a stepfather, but Jesus has his "dad" Joseph. Its very confusing but no, Jesus does not have a step dad
Supposedly in Bethlehem initially; unfortunately there is not documentation of a town named Bethlehem in any historical records. Then they lived for a time in Egypt, then Nazareth before he went on the road full time.
Baby Jesus, Mary and Joseph went to Egypt because the King of Bethlehem was scared of being replaced by a younger unrelated boy, so ordered all boys under age 5 to be put to death.
Mary and Joseph fled to Egypt with Jesus, so Africa.
In Matthew's Gospel, Mary and Joseph were returning with Jesus from Egypt to their hometown of Bethlehem, when God warned Joseph in a dream to turn aside and travel to Nazareth instead. The reason for the warning was that one of Herod's sons had become king of Judea, including Bethlehem. Another son was king of Galilee, which included Nazareth, but for some reason Matthew did not see this as an issue. So, to Matthew, it was God who was responsible for the family making this fortunate move.
We do not know the amount of time Joseph traveled. However, we know that he and Mary traveled from Nazareth to Bethlehem, where Jesus was born. He and the family made a quick escape to Egypt and a few years later returned from there to Nazareth.
A:In Matthew's Gospel, Bethlehem was the home town of Mary and Joseph, so it was necessary to find a storyline that would eventually take Jesus from Bethlehem to Nazareth. The magi came o worship Jesus, causing Herod to fear for his throne, and then Joseph and Mary escaped with Jesus to Egypt. Years later, when returning to their home in Bethlehem, Joseph had a dream that told of more danger in Judea and so turned aside and travelled to a city called Nazareth, in Galilee. In Luke's Gospel, Nazareth was already the home town of Mary and Joseph, and they were required to travel to Bethlehem for a census. They then returned peacefully to Galilee shortly after the birth of Jesus. In this account, there was no reason for a flight to safety, and no need to explain the arrival of Jesus in Nazareth.
