Matthew 1: 18 - 25 (CSB)
Joseph and Mary, an engaged couple, discover that Mary is miraculously pregnant by the Holy Spirit. Despite not having been intimate, she carries the child of God.

Joseph, initially confused and concerned about Mary's reputation, contemplates the serious consequences of her potential adultery. However, an angel appears to him, revealing the divine nature of the pregnancy and assuring him of the child's significance.

Overcoming societal judgment, Joseph chooses to honor the divine plan and marry Mary. He sacrifices his own reputation to fulfill his role as the earthly father of Jesus, the promised Savior.
