#1 - Jesus wasn’t a refugee. His family was moving because high taxes.

#2 - Jesus obeyed the law. Even when he was sentenced to death for a crime he didn’t commit.

They went to Egypt to flee Herod, who was killing all male children under 2 years of age to eliminate the Messiah, whom he viewed as a rival.

But when the threat had passed, they returned to Nazareth. They didn't stay in Egypt and get on welfare.

Read Matthew 2:13-16

The Pharisees would disagree with you.

I guess the king trying to kill you is a REALLY high tax.
