Matthew 1:20-21
===
Matthew wrote what is the first Gospel of the Bible. It is one of the three synoptic gospels, and relates how the Messiah, Jesus, rejected by Israel, sent out his disciples to preach the gospel to the whole world. It was probably written after 70AD.
Here, having provided a lineage of Jesus that represents covenants the Lord had made with his chosen people, Matthew describes why Joseph chose to raise a child that wasn't his son.
