Jesus' Exile to and Return from Egypt in Matthew 2

How is Jesus redoing or recapitulating the history of Israel in himself? How does Matthew teach us to read Genesis, Hosea, Jeremiah, and the rest of the OT in a Christ-centered way? Why is Jesus called a "Nazarene"? How does the life of Moses become a pattern of the life of Jesus? These and other questions, Chad Bird addresses in this week's video on "Reading the Gospels through Hebrew Eyes," on Matthew 2:13-23.

Thank you so much about your teaching. You bring me back to the old testament in order to understand the message in the new testament. Though I am still confused, but I wish someday I could have a bigger picture about the quoting in the new testament. I really appreciate your teaching to let me have a deeper understanding of the Bible

I seem to be drawn to your readings, I've been a little lost with my relationship with our Lord. You seem to make sense. I will continue to listen. 🙏

Thank you again Chad. I hope your Christmas was as bright as mine with the family recounting the life of my son and looking forward to our reunion without end in the new creation. Peace and Prayers. Sam

The picture is interesting... Joseph is much older than Mary, with gray hair. This is what tradition says, as opposed to them both being young when betrothed. Some traditions say Joseph was much older and married Mary in order to be a protector for her as she had been raised in the temple and could no longer stay there when she became a young woman.

Israel became the new Egypt...Herod the new pharoah.
