Only Matthew had an exception (for porneia) and only Matthew listed Joseph's plan to divorce Mary for showing up pregnant before the wedding.

Both these are true.

That is different that attributing causality and purpose, as you did in your posts.

You are taking true facts and spinning them into what is not there to support an idea you brought to the passage

I do wish you well at the spindle.

Take all the passages about divorce and remarriage and consolidate them. The Messiah is against divorce and remarriage and called it adultery.
