The Flight into Egypt
"And being warned in a dream not to return to Herod, [the Magi] departed to their own country by another way.
Now when they had departed, behold, an angel of the Lord appeared to Joseph in a dream and said, "Rise, take the child and his mother, and flee to Egypt, and remain there till I tell you; for Herod is about to search for the child, to destroy him." And he rose and took the child and his mother by night, and departed to Egypt, and remained there until the death of Herod. This was to fulfil what the Lord had spoken by the prophet, "Out of Egypt have I called my son."
– Matthew 2:12-15, which follows on from the Epiphany of the Lord to the Magi. May the Holy Family protect all refugees and persecuted Christians.
This stained glass window is in the parish church of Chipping Norton, Oxfordshire.
