[Hebrews 11:6]

CHRISTMAS BIBLE-ART EPISODE #11 of 33

SHOULD JOSEPH
MARRY MARY?

M A T T H E W
CHAPTER 1

This is how the birth of Jesus Christ came about: His mother Mary was pledged to be married to Joseph, but before they came together, she was found to be with child through the Holy Spirit. Because Joseph her husband was a righteous man and did not want to expose her to public disgrace, he had in mind to divorce her quietly.

But after he had considered this, an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream and said, “Joseph son of David, do not be afraid to take Mary home as your wife, because what is conceived in her is from the Holy Spirit. She will give birth to a son, and you are to give him the name Jesus, because HE WILL SAVE HIS PEOPLE FROM THEIR SINS.”

All this took place to fulfill what the Lord had said through the prophet:

“The virgin will be with child and will give birth to a son, and they will call him IMMANUEL”—which means, “GOD WITH US.”

When Joseph woke up, he did what the angel of the Lord had commanded him and took Mary home as his wife. But he had no union with her until she gave birth to a son. And he gave him the name Jesus.

Stained glass windows!
Notice 3 artists position the ring on the wrong finger, maybe they were not aware of Jewish tradition.

Tissot’s travels to the Holy Land paid off in realism, versus the renaissance fantasies of the rest. He also gives credit to Saint Joseph in the title, which I like (second billing, of course).

They weren't anticipating Chief Inspector Alba to be on the case. They can't slip that weak stuff past you!

[Hebrews 11:6]

When I began posting these four years ago, I was completely unfamiliar with Tissot. Now, he’s my hero.

I first “met” Tissot, illustrating the J-Thread, sixteen years ago, and he’s still at the TOP of my favorite Artists.

[Big Red Badger]

Tissot has My Thumbs up 👍

Anyone reading this, that he’s “my hero” and he’s your “TOP”, must think we’re nuts. LOL

Merry Christmas, ML/LTOS.

Have you seen Dallas' "The Ride: A Christmas Eve Parable"? It stars Kirk B. R. Woller.
