In The Bible, the scripture says that Joseph found out Mary was pregnant before they were married. He initially planned to divorce her quietly, but an angel appeared to him in a dream and told him that the child was from the Holy Spirit. Joseph then chose to stay with Mary and raise the child, who would be named Jesus.
