Jesus' experience from being from a refugee family helped him with his work. Mary had to take him to Egypt when he was a boy where he had never been before because of King Herod. Also because Mary was a refugee Jesus had a kindness in his heart for people that had been through the same thing as him and his mother, running on the go not looking back. Jesus was an immigrant going from city to city to preach the Lord's work to cities that either accepted him or didn't accept him. Some cases people would look down on him like the Pharisees because they thought that he would be leading the people away from the way they were teaching the scriptures, and would lose all the money they were making from the government. Many people would throw rocks at him and say they would kill him because of what he was doing. I'm sure Jesus was scared but he knew what needed to be done no matter what it took so the people would know the truth about God's work.
