Re: Jesus being a “refugee”:
Somehow I don’t think any of the illegals in our country got a visit from an angel telling them to go to the United States or their child will be killed. Besides, Jesus, Mary, and Joseph went back home after the danger to Jesus was over.
Yes, and they fully financed their trip!
No Egyptians were forced to pay them for anything!
No jobs were stollen and no crime committed!
So they were more like tourists visiting neighboring country.
Or CA residents taking refuge from gov. Newsom in AZ.
BTW, the magi presents, gold, frankincense and myrrh were fetching good prices in Egypt. Magi basically financed the Egyptian trip!
