Birth

Of Jesus Christ

Matt. 1:18-25

18 ΒΆ Now the birth of Iesus Christ was on this wise: When as his mother Mary was espoused to Ioseph (before they came together) shee was found with childe of the holy Ghost.
19 Then Ioseph her husband being a iust man, and not willing to make her a publique example, was minded to put her away priuily.
20 But while hee thought on these things, behold, the Angel of the Lord appeared vnto him in a dreame, saying, Ioseph thou sonne of Dauid, feare not to take vnto thee Mary thy wife: for that which is conceiued in her, is of the holy Ghost.
21 And she shall bring forth a sonne, and thou shalt call his Name Iesus: for hee shall saue his people from their sinnes.
22 (Now all this was done, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken of the Lord by the Prophet, saying,
23 Behold, a Uirgin shall be with childe, and shall bring foorth a sonne, and they shall call his name Emmanuel, which being interpreted, is, God with vs.)
24 Then Ioseph, being raised from sleepe, did as the Angel of the Lord had bidden him, & tooke vnto him his wife:
25 And knewe her not, till shee had brought forth her first borne sonne, and he called his name Iesus.
