La Flight to Egypt. The break in the flight to Egypt. In this motif, often depicted in Christian painting, Mary flees from the slaughter of the first-born ordered by Herod, the ruler of Judea, and takes the opportunity to breastfeed, either during a pause on the road or on the donkey. According to the Gospel of Saint Matthew (Matthew 2:13), an angel appeared to Saint Joseph ordering him to flee with his wife and son to Egypt, as Herod, King of Judea, having learned of the birth of Jesus from the Magi and fearing that he would be dethroned by him, was looking for him in order to kill him.
