Matthew 2:19

The Return to Nazareth

2:19 After Herod¹ had died, an² angel of the Lord³ appeared in a dream to Joseph in Egypt

Matthew 27:53

Context
27:53 (They⁴ came out of the tombs after his resurrection and went into the holy city and appeared to many people.)

¹sn See the note on King Herod in 2:1. When Herod the Great died in 4 b.c., his kingdom was divided up among his three sons: Archelaus, who ruled over Judea (where Bethlehem was located, v. 22); Philip, who became tetrarch of Iturea and Trachonitis (cf. Luke 3:1); and Antipas, who became tetrarch of Galilee.

²tn Grk “behold, an angel.” The Greek word ἰδού (idou) has not been translated because it has no exact English equivalent here, but adds interest and emphasis (BDAG 468 s.v. 1).

³tn Or “the angel of the Lord.” See the note on the word “Lord” in 1:20.

⁴tn Here καί (kai) has not been translated.
