Mt 2:11
2:11 And when they were come into the house, they saw the young
child with Mary his mother, and {h} fell down, and
worshipped him: and when they had opened their {i}
treasures, they presented unto him gifts; gold, and
frankincense, and myrrh.
(h) A kind of humble and lovely reverence.
(i) The rich and costly presents, which they brought
him.
Mt 2:12
2:12 And being {k} warned of God in a dream that they should not
return to Herod, they departed into their own country
another way.
(k) God warned and told them of it, even though they
did
not ask him.
Mt 2:13
2:13 {2} And when they were departed, behold, the angel of the
Lord appeareth to Joseph in a dream, saying, Arise, and
take the young child and his mother, and flee into
Egypt,
and be thou there until I bring thee word: for Herod
will
seek the young child to destroy him.
(2) Christ having just been born, begins to be crucified for
us, both in himself, and also in his members.

prophet, saying,
(l) For God speaketh by the mouth of the prophets.
Mt 2:18
2:18 In Rama was there {m} a voice heard, lamentation, and
weeping, and great mourning, {n} Rachel weeping [for]
her
children, and would not be comforted, because they are
not.
(m) A voice of lamenting, weeping and howling.
(n) That is to say, All who live around Bethlehem: for
Rachel, Jacob's wife who died

by the road that leads to this
town, which is also
called Ephratah, because of the
fruitfulness of the
soil, and the plentifulness of
corn.
Mt 2:19
2:19 {3} But when Herod was dead, behold, an angel of the Lord
appeareth in a dream to Joseph in Egypt,
(3) Christ is brought up in Nazareth, after the death of the
tyrant by God's providence: that by the very name of
the
place it might plainly appear to the world that he is
the
Lord's true Nazarite.
