Flight To Egypt

¹⁷ and they departed, and dwelt at Geruth-Chimham, which is by Bethlehem, to go to enter into Egypt, ¹⁸ because of the Chaldeans; for they feared them, because Ishmael the son of Nethaniah had smitten Gedaliah the son of Ahikam, whom the king of Babylon had appointed over the land.
