Mt 1, 21English original
And she shall bring forth a Son, and thou shalt call His name Jesus: for He shall save His people from their sins.
What the Angel thus told Joseph, was beyond human thought, and the law of nature, therefore he confirms his speech not only by revealing to him what was past, but also what was to come; She shall bring forth a Son.
