Yes, and to the Egyptians’ credit, there is no record of them being “rejected”, though of course the Holy Family was eager to get back home as soon as it was safe.

They were indeed refugees when they fled to Egypt to avoid Herod’s slaughter.They were also pretty rich from the Magi gifts, which supported them during the exile.

Didn’t an angel tell them to flee to Egypt? I don’t think too many of today’s refugees had any visits from angels telling them to come here.
