∙ 11y agoIt is clear in Luke that the angel never appeared to Joseph, who must have relied entirely on Mary's account of the angelic visitation. If this is an accurate account, the angel must have not wanted Joseph to be present when he appeared to Mary. This does not tell us where Joseph was or even why the angel wanted him to learn about Jesus from Mary alone.
