AMPLIFIED 2015 | Matthew 1:25 but he kept her a virgin until she had given birth to a Son [her firstborn child]; and he named Him Jesus (The LORD is salvation). |
Subject: Was Mary a virgin her whole life |
Bible Note: Dear jawz, You write, "If you read them with the same English grammar interpretation "until" in Matthew 1:25 they make no sense." Could be, but "until" in the usual sense makes perfect sense in this context. Joseph and Mary were husband and wife. They loved each other. And they did what husbands and wives do after Jesus was born. And they had kids. So, what's the big deal with all this? Is this just a precursor to Maryolatry? Peace, |
