6 Days before Christmas

Joseph is Helped in His Understanding “Because Joseph her husband was a righteous man and did not want to expose her to public disgrace, he had in mind to divorce her quietly. But after he had considered this, an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream and said, ‘Joseph son of David, do not be afraid to take Mary home as your wife, because what is conceived in her is from the Holy Spirit.’” Matthew 1:19–20 This is a good summary of the divine conception of Jesus. To be completely accurate, we should refer to the “virgin conception” of Jesus, rather than the “virgin birth” of Jesus. Mark Water, Bible Teachings Made Easy, The Made Easy Series (Alresford, Hampshire: John Hunt Publishers Ltd, 1998). 42.
