Psychological interpretation
Nazareth, where the child is taken after Herod's death, means to separate - and a Nazarene is not a member of a sect that does not cut its hair, nor is the separating of humanity into two camps, the sheep and the goats. It is the putting off of form and the putting on of the lamb: one who is separated within himself, who knows his own invisibility and his difference from the form that appears. He is Invisible Reality.
