Joseph, Jesus' step-father, had at least three encounters with angels in his dreams, and every time he did exactly as the angel commanded him.First, when Mary became pregnant before they were married(Matthew 1:18-25). In this instance, "...Joseph awoke from his sleep and did as the angel of the Lord commanded him, and took Mary as his wife, but kept her a virgin until she gave birth to a Son; and he called His name Jesus."(NIV)Second, when Herod was seeking to kill the young Jesus(Matthew 2:13-15) "...an angel of the Lord appeared to Joseph in a dream and said, 'Get up! Take the Child and His mother and flee to Egypt, and remain there until I tell you; for Herod is going to search for the Child to destroy Him.' So Joseph got up and took the Child and His mother while it was still night, and left for Egypt.He remained there until the death of Herod...."(NASB)Third, when Herod died and it was safe to return from Egypt (Matthew 2:19,20) "But when Herod was dead, behold, an angel of the Lord appeareth in a dream to Joseph in Egypt, Saying, Arise, and take the young child and his mother, and go into the land of Israel: for they are dead which sought the young child's life And he arose, and took the young child and his mother, and came into the land of Israel.

A:The visit of the magi ("wise men") can only be found in Matthew's Gospel and, according to John Shelby Spong (Born of a Woman: A Bishop Rethinks the Birth of Jesus), the universal assumption among people in New Testament circles is that they were not actual people - Matthew was writing Christian midrash. The magi were important to Matthew's account, as they enabled him to explain the flight to Egypt and thus allow him to draw parallels between Moses and Jesus. They were also significant as the magi were priests of the Zoroastrian religion of the Persians, who believed that the Saoshyant would be born of a virgin and help defeat evil in this world. Matthew knew that his readers, being familiar with Zoroastrianism, would draw a parallel here, and he showed that the priests of this great religion came to worship Jesus.
