Then was fulfilled that which was spoken by Jeremiah the prophet, saying,
18
`A voice in Ramah was heard -- lamentation and weeping and much mourning -- Rachel weeping [for] her children, and she would not be comforted because they are not.'
19
And Herod having died, lo, a messenger of the Lord in a dream doth appear to Joseph in Egypt,
20
saying, `Having risen, take the child and his mother, and be going to the land of Israel, for they have died -- those seeking the life of the child.'
21
And he, having risen, took the child and his mother, and came to the land of Israel,
22
and having heard that Archelaus doth reign over Judea instead of Herod his father, he was afraid to go thither, and having been divinely warned in a dream, he withdrew to the parts of Galilee,
23
and coming, he dwelt in a city named Nazareth, that it might be fulfilled that was spoken through the prophets, that `A Nazarene he shall be called.'
