1The book of the genealogy of Jesus Christ, the son of David, the son of Abraham:[#1:1 Heb Yeshua (Joshua ), meaning Yahweh saves; #1:1 Messiah]
17Therefore all the generations from Abraham to David are fourteen generations; and from David to the deportation to Babylon, fourteen generations; and from the deportation to Babylon to the Christ, fourteen generations.[#1:17 Messiah]
18Now the birth of Jesus Christ was as follows: when His mother Mary had been betrothed to Joseph, before they came together she was found to be with child by the Holy Spirit.[#1:18 The Messiah; #1:18 The first stage of marriage in ancient Jewish culture, usually lasting for a year before the wedding night, more legal than an engagement]
19And Joseph her husband, being a righteous man and not wanting to disgrace her, planned to send her away secretly.[#1:19 Or to divorce her]
20But when he had considered this, behold, an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream, saying, “Joseph, son of David, do not be afraid to take Mary as your wife; for the One who has been conceived in her is of the Holy Spirit.[#1:20 In OT, Yahweh, cf. 2 Kin 1:3; #1:20 Lit that which; #1:20 Lit begotten]
21And she will bear a Son; and you shall call His name Jesus, for He will save His people from their sins.”[#1:21 Lit He Himself]
22Now all this took place in order that what was spoken by the Lord through the prophet would be fulfilled, saying,[#1:22 Lit has happened; #1:22 In OT, Yahweh, cf. Is 7:10]
23“Behold , the virgin shall be with child and shall bear a Son , and they shall call His name Immanuel ,” which translated means, “God with us .”[#1:23 Or Emmanuel]
24And Joseph got up from his sleep and did as the angel of the Lord commanded him, and took Mary as his wife,[#1:24 In OT, Yahweh, cf. 2 Kin 1:3]
25but kept her a virgin until she gave birth to a Son; and he called His name Jesus.[#1:25 Lit and was not knowing her; #1:25 Or bore a Son , cf. 1:21, 23]
