Matthew 2:5–6. Matthew's version is a conflation of Micah 5:2 and 2 Samuel 5:2.
Matthew 2:16 This is presented as a fulfillment of a prophecy and echoes the killing of firstborn by pharaoh in Exodus 11:1–12:36.
Judges 13:5–7 is sometimes identified as the source for Matthew 2:23 because the Septuagint's ναζιραιον (Nazirite) resembles Matthew's Ναζωραῖος (Nazorean). However, few scholars accept the view that Jesus was a Nazirite.
