Matthew 2:14 says, 'So he (Joseph) took the child and his mother during the night and left for Egypt.... so was fulfilled what the Lord had said through the prophet "Out of Egypt I called my son." Matthew 2: 19, 'After Herod died, an angel of the Lord appeared in a dream to Joseph in Egypt and said, 'Get up, take the child and his mother and go to the land of Israel for those who were trying to take the child's life are dead.'
The Holy family, supposedly went to a few places during their stay in Egypt and the Coptic Christians say they know the route that they took. Today these places are places of worship in the Coptic church in Egypt. The hanging church is one of them.
Some interesting visitors....

Before entering the church is this long corridor where Coptic chants are being played and they sell Coptic literature and cassettes.
