Bible Question: Why did Jesus have to be born of a virgin? |
Bible Answer: First, is so that the prophecy would be fulfilled that claimed He would be born of a virgin --- see Matt. 1:22-23. Second, it is generally understood that this was a way that God chose to bypass the assumption of the sinful nature that is passed down from Adam --- "...for through one man sin entered into the world..." Rom. 5:12. Hope this helps. timothy |
