Joseph Was An Honorable Man
Joseph was an honorable man. When he saw that Mary was expecting a child, he wanted to protect her from scandals. An angel came to him and said “Do not be afraid to take Mary as your wife”. She will give birth to a son, whose name shall be Jesus.
Joseph and Mary got married. They traveled to Bethlehem in Judea, to be counted in the empire. Mary was soon to give birth. When they arrived, the city was full, streets were crowded, and every house and lodging was full. Joseph became very anxious to find a place, for Mary to give birth. They could find no where to stay.
Worn out by the long journey, they took shelter in a stable. That night Mary’s son was born. She wrapped him in strips of linen, and gently laid him in a manger, where the animals
fed. There was no where else for the baby to sleep.
