Jesus an ordinary man in Matthews?

OK … My question is, after reading the Bible: If Jesus had no father, then why the Bible says:
Matthew 1:24-25 says, "Then Joseph got up from sleep did as the angel of the Lord commanded him and took unto him his wife, and she did not know until she gave birth to her firstborn son: and called his name Jesus. "" Till "(until) means that after that point, Joseph did" know "(have sex with) Mary. (See
  Genesis 4:1 where Adam "knew" Eve and she conceived and bore a son.)
  And being a Catholic candidate, I do look at Mary - why hubub it all? For me, the balance of things (Queen of Heaven, not the cargo), as only the Father (do not bother with the "nonsense without gender" is called "The Father," Come now! ) And the child makes a dysfunctional family, which has no female of any value. So please, if you can not love your neighbor, then please keep to himself. Do not want no hot mud berth (which is what the election is for).

    The Holy Spirit descended on Mary and impreginated while she was a virgin. She did not have sexual relations with Joseph until after the birth of Jesus. After Jesus was born Joseph Childern others. Maria is her birth mother, but Joseph is not his biological father, the Holy Ghost made a virgin conceive.
      The only time I ever going to happen. Jesus is true God and true man.
      I really do not understand what Genesis 4:1 into it.

  2. Church Music Girl says:

    All that this passage tells me is that after Mary gave birth to Jesus, it is possible that she and Joseph had sex. For some people, it is imperitive that Mary was ever virgin. For me, it's not as big of a deal. Of her virginity, even during pregnancy only states that Jesus is divine and human as he was born a woman, but also the self-God incarnate. Whether or not she had sex (and possibly other children) after the birth of Jesus does not change what Jesus is / was / will be.
      Personally, I look to Mary as an example of a life in obedience to God. But the important thing is that she lived her life. She knew the struggle and joy and pain and still loved the Lord with all his being. To me, this is a great inspiration.

    I think he meant Joseph and Mary were normal people? were. They were open to let God's direction in their lives and they followed his direction. Jesus is and always will be a divine being. Fully human fully divine, who is the mystery of the ages.

  4. danni_d2 says:

    Technically, Jesus had two fathers: his real, heavenly Father, God, Jesus transferred into the womb of the Virgin Mary, and Joesph, who is considered his adoptive father, because technically, Joseph had no part in the creation of Jesus .
      As a side point, she was a God fearing woman, who was blessed to be the mother of the Messiah. Assume that it never had sex with her husband's ridiculous, the Bible speaks of the half brothers of Jesus. She never mentioned in the Bible as an object worthy of veneration or worship. She deserves respect for being a faithful follower of God, but God alone is worthy of worship.

    Mary is not divine … was only a human being who did the will of God as any Christian, no. Isn't Mary Queen of Heaven. Where does Jesus or God anywhere in praying to Mary to intercede .. lol

  6. amyman12 says:

    fraze the key is "after she gave birth to her firstborn [...]" She was the virgin mother, for the love of Christ … not yet consummated the marriage until after the birth of Christ. and of course Mary and Joesph had children after that ….

  7. Justsyd says:

    Joseph and Mary are the biological parents and God is the spiritual father of Jesus according to as explained in the Bible. He is human and spirit.
      Mary was born with the Immaculate Conception so that he could have Jesus and be considered a virgin and to be free of original sin.

  8. alex l says:

    Mary was a virgin when she became pregnant with Jesus, therefore, the Immaculate Conception. This is why Mary is so revered among Catholics, that God ordered Mary to be worthy of carrying the child of God. if you read everything in the four Gospels, we find that Joseph was indignant that Mary was pregnant, and it was not for his seed. after the front José Angel of his main concern was how to protect Mary from public ridicule and punishment for having a child out of wedlock. so naturally, they were married. I really do not understand the question, however. for me the verse simply says that Joseph was not the biological father. at that time something like that could have been against Jewish law, and to protect his family, he did what he had to do.
