      When the group of astrologers had evasively gone, an envoy from heaven of the Lord appeared to Joseph in a dream, saying, “Get up and take both the young child and his mother, and flee and go and stay in the land of Egypt, and having reached it, do stay in that place until we then tell you to come back again, for King Herod will be sending men to kill the child.”
