Gabriel
Joseph was told not to divorce Mary, as that was what he was thinking of doing.
The Angel said that the Child is from God and Joseph was not to divorce Mary for supposed infidelity. In another dream, the Angel told Joseph to take Mary and Jesus to Egypt to avoid King Herod's order to kill all boys under age 2.
According to the gospel of Luke, Mary was told about her pregnancy by an angel.
Joseph and Mary were betrothed to each other. Joseph had to go to Bethlehem to be registered because he was an ancestor of King David. Mary, who was with child went with him. Joseph was the step father of Jesus and God had ordained that Joseph and Mary raise Jesus after His birth. They became a family and Joseph was the father figure.
OK, what u do is flee ur country (DONT TELL shhh) and say, it's to... idk... New Jersey, then do it there!
After the angel's visit in his dream, Joseph decided to take Mary as his wife and raise Jesus as his own son. He also followed the angel's instruction to flee with his family to Egypt to escape King Herod's persecution.
An angel visited Joseph at least three times:1.) To explain to him that Mary was pregnant by the power of the Holy Spirit and would be the mother of the son of God.2.) To tell Joseph that Herod wanted to kill the baby Jesus and he should move his family to Egypt.3.) To tell Joseph that Herod was dead and it was safe to return to Palestine.
A:The author of Luke's Gospel says that an angel appeared to Mary, but not to Joseph. The author of Matthew's Gospel says that an angel appeared to Joseph in a dream, but not to Mary. In spite of the second-century attribution, both authors were actually anonymous, and Uta Ranke-Heinemann (Putting Away Childish Things) says that both nativity accounts are, with respect to time, place, and circumstances, a collection of legends.
Joseph was told that his fiancee was going to get pregnant with the power of the holy spirit. and to name him Jesus and that he would be the savior of the world.
