23214 | MAT 1:1 | A genealogy of Jesus Christ, son of David, son of Abraham: |
23217 | MAT 1:4 | then Ram begot Amminadab, then Amminadab begot Nahshon, then Nahshon begot Salmon; |
23218 | MAT 1:5 | then Salmon begot Boaz by Rahab, then Boaz begot Obed by Ruth, then Obed begot Jesse, |
23219 | MAT 1:6 | then Jesse begot David the king. Then King David begot Solomon by her who was of Uriah, |
23220 | MAT 1:7 | then Solomon begot Rehoboam, then Rehoboam begot Abijah, then Abijah begot Asa; |
23224 | MAT 1:11 | then Josiah begot Jeconiah and his brothers about the time of the Babylonian captivity. |
23225 | MAT 1:12 | After the Babylonian captivity Jeconiah begot Shealtiel, then Shealtiel begot Zerubbabel; |
23226 | MAT 1:13 | then Zerubbabel begot Abiud, then Abiud begot Eliakim, then Eliakim begot Azor; |
23227 | MAT 1:14 | then Azor begot Zadok, then Zadok begot Achim, then Achim begot Eliud; |
23228 | MAT 1:15 | then Eliud begot Eleazar, then Eleazar begot Matthan, then Matthan begot Jacob; |
23229 | MAT 1:16 | then Jacob begot Joseph the husband of Mary, by whom was begotten Jesus, who is called Christ. |
23230 | MAT 1:17 | So all the generations from Abraham to David are fourteen generations, and from David until the Babylonian captivity are fourteen generations, and from the Babylonian captivity until the Christ are fourteen generations. |
23231 | MAT 1:18 | Now the birth of Jesus Christ was like this: After His mother Mary was betrothed to Joseph, before they joined together, she was found to be pregnant by the Holy Spirit. |
23232 | MAT 1:19 | Then Joseph her husband, being a just man and not wanting to humiliate her publicly, decided to repudiate her secretly. |
23233 | MAT 1:20 | But while he pondered these things, wow, an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream saying: “Joseph, son of David, do not be afraid to receive Mary as your wife, because that which has been conceived in her is of the Holy Spirit. |
23234 | MAT 1:21 | And she will give birth to a Son and you will call His name Jesus, because He will save His people from their sins.” |
23235 | MAT 1:22 | Now all this happened so that what was spoken by the Lord through the prophet should be fulfilled, namely: |
23236 | MAT 1:23 | “Behold, the virgin will become pregnant and bear a Son, and they shall call His name Emmanuel”, which being translated is, ‘God with us’. |
23237 | MAT 1:24 | Then Joseph, being aroused from sleep, did as that angel of the Lord commanded him and received his wife, |
23238 | MAT 1:25 | but did not know her until she had given birth to her son, the firstborn. And he called His name JESUS. |
23239 | MAT 2:1 | Now after Jesus was born in Bethlehem of Judea, in the days of Herod the king, behold, wise men [magi] from the East came into Jerusalem, |
23241 | MAT 2:3 | When Herod the king heard it he became agitated, and all Jerusalem with him. |
23242 | MAT 2:4 | And gathering all the chief priests and scribes of the people, he inquired of them where the Christ was to be born. |
23243 | MAT 2:5 | So they said to him: “In Bethlehem of Judea, for thus it stands written by the prophet: |
23244 | MAT 2:6 | ‘And you, Bethlehem, land of Judah, are not at all the least among the rulers of Judah, for out of you will come a Ruler who will shepherd my people Israel.’ ” |
23245 | MAT 2:7 | Then Herod, calling the wise men secretly, determined from them the time when the star appeared. |
23246 | MAT 2:8 | And directing them to Bethlehem he said, “When you get there, search carefully for the young child; and should you find him, bring back word to me, so that I also may go and worship him.” |
23247 | MAT 2:9 | So having heard the king they departed, and there was the star that they had seen in the East! It went before them until it arrived and stopped above where the young Child was. |
23248 | MAT 2:10 | Now when they saw the star they rejoiced with exceedingly great joy! |
23249 | MAT 2:11 | And coming into the house they saw the young Child with Mary His mother, and falling down they worshiped Him; and opening their treasures they presented gifts to Him: gold, frankincense and myrrh. |
23251 | MAT 2:13 | Now when they had departed, again, an angel of the Lord appeared to Joseph in a dream saying: “Get up, take the young Child and His mother, flee to Egypt and stay there until I tell you; because Herod is about to seek the young Child to destroy Him!” |
23252 | MAT 2:14 | So he got up and took the young Child and His mother by night and departed for Egypt. |
23253 | MAT 2:15 | And he was there until the death of Herod, so that what was spoken by the Lord through the prophet should be fulfilled, namely: “Out of Egypt I called my Son.” |
23254 | MAT 2:16 | Then Herod, when he saw that he had been deceived by the wise men, became very angry, and he sent out and killed all the boys who were in Bethlehem and in all its districts, from two years old and under, according to the time which he had determined from the wise men. |
23255 | MAT 2:17 | Then what was spoken by Jeremiah the prophet was fulfilled, namely: |
23256 | MAT 2:18 | “A voice was heard in Ramah, lamentation, weeping and great mourning; Rachel weeping for her children and not wanting to be comforted, because they are no more.” |
23257 | MAT 2:19 | Now Herod having died, there, an angel of the Lord appeared in a dream to Joseph in Egypt |
23258 | MAT 2:20 | saying: “Get up, take the young Child and His mother and go into the land of Israel, for those seeking the life of the young Child have died.” |
23259 | MAT 2:21 | So he got up and took the young Child and His mother and went into the land of Israel. |
