{To their own city Nazareth} (eis polin heaut(936e) Nazaret).
See on Mt 2:23 about Nazareth. Luke tells nothing of the flight
to Egypt and the reason for the return to Nazareth instead of
Bethlehem, the place of the birth of Jesus as told in Mt
2:13-23 . But then neither Gospel gives all the details of this
period. Luke has also nothing about the visit of the wise men
( Mt 2:1-12 ) as Matthew tells nothing of the shepherds and of
Simeon and Anna ( Lu 2:8-28 ). The two Gospels supplement each
other.
