What folks are missing in the “fled to Egypt” when they try to make the “immigrant” argument, is that both Israel and Egypt were under Roman rule as parts of the Roman Empire, thus they were moving from one part of the Empire to another, rather like US citizens legally moving from one state to another, such as from Maryland to Indiana.

THANK YOU! I was looking all over for someone to point out this very simple, end-of-discussion fact.
