Read this in The Manila Times digital edition.
Of all the countries in the world, the Lord Jesus chose Egypt to flee to from the face of Herod the King who wished to kill Him when yet a Child. The Gospel of Matthew relates in its second chapter how Herod the King sought to kill the Child Jesus, so the angel of the Lord commanded St. Joseph to "take the young Child and His mother and flee into Egypt and stay there until I bring you word." When Herod died, St. Joseph was commanded to take the family back to the historic land of Israel.
