During the existence of the Holy Family in Tel Basta, they passed by a person named (Gulwm), who invited them, to his home, where he hosted them. Upon arrival to the house of (Gulwm), the Child Jesus blessed the house of (Gulwm). Gulwm apologized to Virgin Mary, as his wife was sick since 3 years, so she cannot meet or welcome them, Jesus said for Gulwm: "Now your wife Sarah will not be sick anymore”. Immediately Sara walked towards the door welcoming the child and his mother. She asked them to stay for a longer period because of the existence of the boy is a blessing for the house. The next day, Virgin Mary expressed her wish to visit the temple, as there was a celebration at the noontime, So Virgin Mary carried the Child Jesus, went with Sarah to the temple, and once they entered the temple the granite statues of the gods crushed and the huge temple shattered and became big pile of granite. The event spread in all over the town until it stepped Governor’s office and the investigations started and he knew that the reason is the entry of a woman carrying a small child and may be this child is the sacred child who Herodus is searching for and Herodus had asked the Governor to arrest him. Orders were issued to the military to search for the boy in every corner of the city and; Gulwm heard about all the arrangements and about the steps taken by the authorities to arrest the child who was the reason of the blessing and cure of his wife. Therefore, Gulwm was worried about the Child Jesus, so he advised Mary to escape from the city at night doe to the lack of military activity.
