In this message, we consider Isaiah’s prophecy of the virgin being with child. Was this a direct reference to Jesus Christ, fulfilled in Him? What else might Matthew’s statement mean? Joseph obeys the angel and takes Mary into his home as his wife. He does not consummate their relationship with her, however, until her first child is born, whom he calls Jesus. Then, we are introduced to certain wise men who, in the east, see a star that is a sign that the King of the Jews has been born. They travel the long journey to Israel to find Him, and go to Herod the king. Herod, a tyrannical dictator, is greatly upset at their coming, but chooses to act subtly. He finds out from the religious leaders where Messiah would be born. They reply, and their reply condemns Jews today who seek to deny the truth of it.
