# General Information:
|
|
|
|
In verse 15, Matthew quotes the prophet Hosea to show that the Christ would spend time in Egypt.
|
|
|
|
# they had departed
|
|
|
|
"the learned men had departed"
|
|
|
|
# appeared to Joseph in a dream
|
|
|
|
"came to Joseph while he was dreaming"
|
|
|
|
# Get up, take ... flee ... Remain ... you
|
|
|
|
God is speaking to Joseph, so these should all be singular forms. (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-you]])

|
|
# until I tell you
|
|
|
|
The full meaning of this statement can be made explicit. Alternate translation: "until I tell you it is safe to come back" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-explicit]])
|
|
|
|
# I tell you
|
|
|
|
Here "I" refers to God. The angel is speaking for God.
