Matthew goes on to tell about Joseph’s dream in which an angel urged him to flee to Egypt, his flight with his family, his dream in which an angel told him to return to the land of Israel, his return, and his decision to settle his family in Nazareth. In the opening chapters of Matthew’s Gospel, Joseph’s name is mentioned eight times, but Mary’s, only four.
Edasi räägib Matteus unenäost, kus ingel käskis Joosepil põgeneda Egiptusse, tema rännakust koos perega, veel ühest unenäost, kus ingel käskis Joosepil Iisraelimaale tagasi pöörduda, tema tagasitulekust ja otsusest jääda oma perega elama Naatsaretti.
