Subject: Had Joesph already adopted Jesus? |
Bible Note: Nolan: I agree with you. First, I've never even heard of Joseph legally adopting Jesus. There is no mention of it in Scripture. Second, "Joseph, her husband, being a just man, [was] not willing to make her a public example" (Matthew 1:19, KJV). This being so, why would Joseph subsequently make Mary a public example by "adopting" the child born to her? Doesn't even make sense. kalos |
