NASB | Matthew 1:19 And Joseph her husband, being a righteous man and not wanting to disgrace her, planned to send her away secretly. |
AMPLIFIED 2015 | Matthew 1:19 And Joseph her [promised] husband, being a just and righteous man and not wanting to expose her publicly to shame, planned to send her away and divorce her quietly. |
Subject: Why did Joesph wait to divorce Mary? |
Bible Note: 1) Because he was a righteous man. (Please look at the verse that you have cited.) 2) It was not in God's will for Joseph to divorce Mary. (Matthew 1:20, which is the VERY NEXT VERSE following the one that you have cited...) Steve, I really do believe that you could have answered your own question here, my friend. :-) - Nolan |
