Question: When Jesus, Mary and Joseph fled to Egypt to escape Herod, was it to Gaza?
Many presume Alexandria, where there was a colony of hundreds of thousands (some sources say well over a million Jews). However, the Orthodox and Coptic (Egyptian) Christians believe it to have been in Abu Serga, in Cairo. Perhaps there were too many people too well connected with Herod in Alexandria. Intriguingly, however, Gaza was not part of Judea, but even then was a tiny strip of land densely packed with Philistines. They were neither Egyptian nor Arag, however, but likely Greek.
