Beautiful video. See also Jonathan Kleck You Are Exiles DVD and Strong's Concordance. Psalm 82.6. The linguist translated hebrew and greek will truly blow your mind.
A man of faith and courage. He ignored what might have been said about his pregnant betrothed and took her to his home and protected her. His guidance of the young Jesus would have been very significant. Bless his name and memory.
I'm 57 and this is the first time anyone has focused on Joseph and laid out the marriage rites of this period. It put the story of the Nativity in a whole new light.
Only Catholic Church acknowledged this and taught for 2000 years. Mary and Joseph are the model of holy family. That’s why marriage is one of the 7 sacrament. They call it marriage sacrament.
Matthew (13:55-56) mention James, Joseph/Joses, Judas/Jude and Simon as brothers of Jesus, the son of Mary. The same verses also mention unnamed sisters of Jesus.
@@chancoo2896 Jesus was Mary's only child. James and Judas (who were also apostles) as well as their elder brothers Simon and Joseph were Jesus' cousins, Alphaeus' sons (Alphaeus was the brother of Joseph the adoptive father of Jesus). If Jesus had siblings as you people claim (even Martin Luther believed Jesus was the only child of Mary), why then did his Mother Mary move out to John's house after the crucifixion of Jesus? Was John perhaps Jesus' brother too? Would she not have gone to live with her "other" children? Were two of the apostles not her children as you people wrongly claim? So why would she, after seeing her son murdered go and start living with someone who is not related to her and who has his own mother (Mary Salome) while she has children?🤔
@z Matthew 1:25 states that Joseph had marital relations with Mary after the birth of Jesus. Generally, that means more children. And also, there are many passages referring to brothers and sisters of Jesus in the Gospels, even naming them. Mark 6:3, Matthew 13:55-56, John 7:1-5 are just a few examples.
I don't think many men would appreciate having to raise a son that was created when their wife had sex with another man. Yes, I know the Christian tradition claims that Jesus was born to the virgin Mary via immaculate conception, but in real life pregnancies are man after a man and a woman have sex.
@@liliankuhn4671 He was the patriarch of the Holy Family, exemplary father, he guided, protected and provided for the family. Was as Mary also virgin!!!!! The whole family!!!! Jesus crucified on a virgin cross and buried in a virgin tomb. They were holy!!!
A virtuous man of love, humility, selflessness, and sacrifice. So noble and beautiful. What every man, father, husband ought to be in the name of PEACE.
I thought Joseph was older than he had a family three brothers and three daughters these are Jesus half brothers and sons who grew up with him tell Joseph with a godly virtuous husband and father
This is actually going to be my preaching this Sunday and right now, I want to thank the Holy Spirit. While actually witnessing Joseph's love for Mary, it brought tears to my eyes.
@@7pal101 Mary did not doubt Gos's will. If she doubted, she may have been punished like Zaccheus who doubted God's message through thesame angel Gabriel or she would not have been chosen to conceive Jesus. She asked how will she conceive since she is a virgin, because she had taken vows to remain a virgin for life and had no intention of being with a man. And that is why immediately after her question the angel explained she will concieve as a virgin through the power of the Holy Spirit and she then accepted God's will and said "let it be done unto me according to your word"
Ndum Ferdy when she questioned she doubt, but when she said “let it be done unto me according to your word” she accepted God’s will and for that she will ever be blessed. She is the mother of our dear Lord Jesus who left Her as our mother and The Queen of Heaven. I love Mary, Joseph and Jesus. The Holy Family and by the way All Virgin!!!!
@@7pal101 she did not doubt!! Why did Angel Gabriel not make her dumb like he did to Zacheus. As soon as Zacheus expressed his doubt he was made dumb. He did not even have the opportunity to be given an explanation as was with the case with Mary. So why the preferential treatment for Mary? Because the angel knew her heart and intentions and knew she did not doubt. Her question was: how will it happen? Zacheus question was: can it even happen?
Ndum Ferdy when there’s a question there’s an inherent doubt She was just being human But she did God’s will and that’s all that matters that’s why blessed her
This man is among the few I would love to sit down at his feet and listen to him relay the story of his life. No man worlds without end but him can share details, the weight & definitely feelings of inadequacy he only knows.
I have had a life very similar to Joseph and my name is Joseph I love my king and heavily father so so much I break down in tears when I talk and pray daily
So much to learn from St. Joseph, the obedience to God’s will, the courage and bravery to take on the responsibility of protecting the Holy family from Herod. Clearly the model of how Fatherhood should be, greatly needed in today’s modern world. Lord have mercy!

Happy feast day of St Joseph to everyone! It was nice going to Mass today. This afternoon I prayed the Rosary of St Joseph. I'm so glad this year is dedicated to this remarkable man. We should pray to St Joseph for our families. St Joseph terror of demons, pray for us!
We are to pray only to God. The "saints" of the Catholic religion can't answer prayers, nor can they intercede for us before God. And if any demon was ever afraid of a mortal man (other than Jesus when He was on earth), the demon was a wuss.
So happy to found this story of St Joseph .Beautifully explained.. Every family Man can learn so much from St Joseph .We need the Man who will lead the family in prayer.. Love this perfect Holy family
Thanks for sharing such a nice post. I myself always pondered why Joseph is ignored,but really if God chose the most pious of all the women to be his mother, he chose the most humble and down to earth men to his father.

It was in 2016 when I fell really ill. I was hospitalized for almost a week and I’m not getting any better. One night, I looked out of the window of my room where I was confined and I saw the facade of the St. Joseph Shrine. I prayed to God and to Jesus to heal me and before I ended the prayer I asked the help of St. Joseph to also pray for me and if he could deliver my prayers to Jesus. When, I woke up the next day my fever was gone and my blood tests became normal. I thank the Lord for healing me and to St. Joseph for interceding with my prayers. ❤️

Beautiful depictions. I have to add something to his piece which I learned several years ago. When the betrothal ceremony was complete, the groom went to his own home, having promised his bride that he would prepare a home (this might be an actual home, or he would be adding a room onto his father's house for her. Think of the scripture, "In my Father's house are many mansions... I go to prepare a place for you. If I go & prepare a place for you I will return to receive you to myself, that where I am you may be also.") Then.... & this is the part I find fascinating... the groom could not go get his bride until HIS FATHER told him that it was time to return for his bride! Think about it... If you're an eager young bridegroom who wanted to go get his bride, you might be in such a hurry that you slap up a quick "house" (or room in his father's house), & call it good so that you can rush to go bring your bride home. But a wise father was in charge. He would see to it that the place prepared for his new daughter-in-law was just perfect before allowing his son to go for her. This is so significant when we think about the Bridegroom coming for His Bride at the Second Coming. Only the Father knows when it is time for His Son's return to earth for his Bride. I just find the symbolism so fascinating! (You can read more about this in Donna B. Nielsen's (a member of our faith) book, "Beloved Bridegroom: Finding Christ in Ancient Jewish Marriage & Family Customs," as well as a wee bit in Donna Baer's (not a member of our faith) book, "The Bible's Feasts: The Secrets Behind the World's Oldest Holidays." - comment taken from one website, written by Laura Clayton
Saint Joseph is my favorite Saint. I do agree that he doesn't get the recognition that he deserve, after all Our Lord God chose him to become the adoptive father of Our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. Blessed Saint Joseph, Pray for us. Amen
Thanks for this teaching. The Lord Jesus surely must have loved His step daddy. Which in this day and age is a good message, because there are so many step parents.
Its very nice to know about the character of Joseph..always we see about a mother's compassion but in Joseph we see that as father.. he is chosen by God.. Father of Jesus....the son of God.
Take also into consideration that boys would spend most of the time with their fathers; learning their skills, the law, and their ways. I genuinely believe that most of Jesus's character was of Joseph, that's why God chose him too.
Guys, I’ve watched a handful of your videos and the Old Testament re-enactments are outstanding. I can imagine the effort it takes to produce something so nice. It is an excellent piece. Thank you. Keep up this wonderful work. God bless you guys. See you in heaven!!
Joseph, heroic, brave, loving, forgiving. Saving the life of Jesus during Herod's reign of terror. A remarkable man, that gets glossed over by history. This man needs to be remembered. Teaching the men, @ the rest of the world, what a REAL MAN IS. WHAT A FATHER IS. Before Christ grew up, this man saved him and humanity. God knew what He was doing when choosing Joseph as Christ's earthly father. 😇🙏✌💜
It is he that was chosen to protect the Holy Family, care for Mary, teach Jesus to pray and learn how to be a man of God when he walked the earth. St. Joseph lived a life of holiness, courage, and prudence, virtues that any man today can learn from. St Joseph, Patron of the Domestic Church, pray for us...and teach us what you know ⚜️
Even from a young age.. I always loved Joseph.. Like a soft spot to him... And I always thought that he was not given the recognition he deserved... This video explained a lot more... And magnified his humble presence more..
Thank you for pointing out the masonry work vs. the carpentry work. I always wondered how he could do so much w/ wood when there weren't many trees in Israel.
God could not have chosen a better man for father of his son. I just had my third miracle baby born on August 15. We named him Julian Joseph. Although I wanted to honor Mary, we already had Marian names with our first two children and this time couldn't agree on a boy's name we both loved. I had prayed to St. Joseph since recently I heard he is known to "make possible what seems impossible". I had a couple things to ask through his intercession and they were granted! I'm really glad my husband agreed on the name Joseph and I know St. Joseph will be looking after this little soul.
Such an overlooked person of scripture.. it’s actually ridiculous this fascinating and mysterious man isn’t enquired about more, there’s a lot to learn from Joesph.. Thanks be to Christ !
Joseph was the most remarkable man of his age and time. Humble and obedient to God's law and customs. That's why God chose hime ti be the foster father of God the Son
My favorite saint of all time is St.Joseph,happy that this 2021 is attributed to this wonderful step-father of lord jesus.He was such a noble man upon which Lord has chosen him to look after and raise his son,a blessing given solely to him that no other saints on this Earth got...
Just listening to this account made me love Joseph so much more than I did earlier. Truly God's choice of an adoptive father was perfect. I wonder why he died so early though considering that those nations lived long and healthy lives
I love this story.i love it that Joseph's life is being told because no one think's how significant his role was in life. He is a prime example on how a father and husband should be. Great story thanks!
“Where does he get this wisdom and the power to do miracles?” Then they scoffed, “He’s just the carpenter’s son, and we know Mary, his mother, and his brothers-James, Joseph,[f] Simon, and Judas. All his sisters live right here among us. Where did he learn all these things?” And they were deeply offended and refused to believe in him. Mat 13:57
God Bless you for sharing the beautiful testimony of Joseph's life.He was truly a man of solid conviction expressed by those who shared their comments with us. Amen
Thank you for bringing st joseph to the fore. He deserves our love and affection for the beautiful love devoted care of jesus and Mary. We love him dearly. He is still working marvels in our lives.blessing and prayers from Sydney Australia ❤❤❤
Well, thank you and so glad to hear you enjoyed the video so much! Make sure to check out my other Christmas videos in the playlist "The Nativity Story." I think you will enjoy them as well. Merry Christmas!
This moved me into tears. His faith, mercy and his obedience to God is why God chose him to father Jesus. The same can be said about Mary. God chose this young couple to be parents of his beloved son because he knows their heart and their faith and characters. He knows who they are.
Beautiful In this mordern world if Every man could be a true loving father to his children and a great humble friend to his wife. What a loving and beautiful fly they can be and remain in peace, love and harmony always.
From a Catholic perspective Joseph was a just man and he is mentioned in the Roman Canon during the Eucharistic prayer. The following is a song I learned when I was a boy in Catholic School growing up in the 1960's St Joseph God has given you all workers for your own, Teach them to do the best they can, with steel and wood and stone. St Joseph God has chosen you to keep His church from harm, Protect the CHURCH as once you held the Christ Child in your arms. Saint Joseph please protect us forever be our guide, Help us to love Jesus more in and His laws abide.
Just a Man? In Catholic Church he is a SAINT among the Saints, the Terror of Demons cause the Demons are terrified by Saint Joshep and year 2021 was oficially Saint Joshep Year in Catholic Church.
God the Father, in His great wisdom, chose a good man like Joseph to fill such a big role because he knew that Jesus, in His formative years, needed a good earthly example. God, the Father, chose Joseph to be Jesus’s daddy.
Joseph was a carpenter hero. He is a great role model for men today. He stuck by the woman he loved and at times must have felt so inadequate compared to Jesus's biological father, I mean, how to you even compete with the FATHER. You can't, but he gave it his all and loves Jesus as his own✝️❤
When we only intend to read the bible but not understand it we will miss a great story such as this. At some point in our lives, we ignored his story. Thank you for sharing with us the story of Mr. Joseph. He was an amazing man and the most amazing father.
Dead people can't pray for anybody. Only Jesus is alive. Wake up! Stop following religion. Religion is dead and it will lead you all to hell.Follow Jesus until is not too late. Only JESUS can save you.
I love you my patron St. Joseph...you who is overlooked so often, my dear St. Joseph may many more young men carry forward those beautiful qualities God gave you! Amen!🔥
Joseph was definitely the best example of a father. God knew how essential Jesus' upbringing was in order to fulfill His purpose. Likewise, it is very significant that parents are obedient to the word of God through that they can manage and raise a godly generation, a generation that fulfills God's purpose.
Same here. Always heard he was 40ish & established as a Carpenter. In those days it was common for older men who'd established homes & trades to take younger Brides for childbirth. Many Widows were around back then, too, as a result.
Joseph was an old man when he and Mary were married. Joseph was amazing man and an amazing stepfather. He and Mary never had any other children. Mary only had one child that was Jesus.
I always had a great respect & love for this wonderful man in the life of Jesus & Mary. They must love him greatly & rightly so. Thanks for posting this.
Joseph, the earthly father of Jesus. Jesus, the Son of Man, Joseph, and the Son of God, Jehovah.Jesus was honored to be a king yet he was so humble like a carpenter. There is no one else like Him to ever walk this earth and will never again be. Hallelujah.
God knows our heart. He chose Joseph for a reason. He has great attributes that men in our time can learn from. I pray my son grows up to be honorable like him.
May this world gain more men that have Joseph’s attributes.
Thank you jee
AMEN!!!
Amen amen
And women with Mother Mary's attributes
And may there be more proverbs 31 women
I'm so glad that Joseph is finally getting the attention he deserves. He was an amazing man.
Agreed!
Pope Benedict during his pontificate included him in our liturgical prayers said at Mass.
Never forgotten; but brought forward.
Um wow
I feel the same way about Alfred Pennyworth!
@@zestybutterfly7161 who is Alfred Pennyworth?
A true example of a step-dad being a real father!🙏🏽💕
Very true. It's sad in this generation the modern-day people don't follow these examples

Just need all the mothers to be as holy as Mary. A great example indeed.
A man of faith and courage. He ignored what might have been said about his pregnant betrothed and took her to his home and protected her. His guidance of the young Jesus would have been very significant. Bless his name and memory.
Joseph was better than some biological fathers. Some biological fathers did not protect their children the way Joseph protected Jesus
I sure wish there were more writings on him. We know he was amazing by how he protected Mary and Jesus.

I've always thought Joseph got ignored. God choose him so he must have beena great man.
Yeah, that's likely, but also because he is from the line of David.
That's still a lot of men within that line, eh?
And Joseph was a descendant of King David - the boy who ended Goliath. 'nuf said.
Yes , Joseph was old
Right off the bat ,they made a mistake .Mary and joseph had no children of their own,even Jesus wasnt his biological child
A virtuous man of love, humility, selflessness, and sacrifice. So noble and beautiful. What every man, father, husband ought to be in the name of PEACE.

What a perfect time for the increased recognition of Joseph during these very trying times throughout the world.
He was an absolutely honorable man. God would never have picked a wuss, cowardly man to help raise His Son, the Savior of the world.
Yeah
Woah easy there
And loving and righteous, a man after His own heart, a bit like David his forefather.
Amen to that! Joseph was pure. God knew exactly what he was doing when he chose Joseph to raise Christ, the Messiah.

Nielsen's (a member of our faith) book, "Beloved Bridegroom: Finding Christ in Ancient Jewish Marriage & Family Customs," as well as a wee bit in Donna Baer's (not a member of our faith) book, "The Bible's Feasts: The Secrets Behind the World's Oldest Holidays." - comment taken from one website, written by Laura Clayton
Amen. Thank you St.Joseph appa for giving us the MOST precious gem for us in the name of lord JESUS
Thank you Father God for the example of Joseph the Carpenter.
In all things to God be the glory.
In Jesus name
God bless
Beautiful!!!We never know how God may use us for his purpose.
Saint Joseph is my favorite Saint. I do agree that he doesn't get the recognition that he deserve, after all Our Lord God chose him to become the adoptive father of Our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. Blessed Saint Joseph, Pray for us. Amen
Thanks for this teaching. The Lord Jesus surely must have loved His step daddy. Which in this day and age is a good message, because there are so many step parents.
Its very nice to know about the character of Joseph..always we see about a mother's compassion but in Joseph we see that as father.. he is chosen by God.. Father of Jesus....the son of God.
Wow that touched me. We never think about ole Joseph. He was a stand up guy!
Thank you, this touched my heart...Amen
You are welcome!
Just one word:
WOW!!!
Take also into consideration that boys would spend most of the time with their fathers; learning their skills, the law, and their ways. I genuinely believe that most of Jesus's character was of Joseph, that's why God chose him too.
Amen, finally heard the story of Joseph the adopted father of our Lord Jesus Christ.🌲🙏
ewwwwwww
These two young people was blessed beyond what we can imagine ❤
Thank you Lord, for coming for us!
Guys, I’ve watched a handful of your videos and the Old Testament re-enactments are outstanding. I can imagine the effort it takes to produce something so nice. It is an excellent piece. Thank you. Keep up this wonderful work. God bless you guys. See you in heaven!!
Joseph, heroic, brave, loving, forgiving. Saving the life of Jesus during Herod's reign of terror. A remarkable man, that gets glossed over by history. This man needs to be remembered. Teaching the men, @ the rest of the world, what a REAL MAN IS. WHAT A FATHER IS. Before Christ grew up, this man saved him and humanity. God knew what He was doing when choosing Joseph as Christ's earthly father. 😇🙏✌💜
your god is a pretend made up character, just like the tooth fairy
It is he that was chosen to protect the Holy Family, care for Mary, teach Jesus to pray and learn how to be a man of God when he walked the earth. St. Joseph lived a life of holiness, courage, and prudence, virtues that any man today can learn from. St Joseph, Patron of the Domestic Church, pray for us...and teach us what you know ⚜️
Yet another edifying video! Great job guys. Glory to God.
Even from a young age.. I always loved Joseph.. Like a soft spot to him... And I always thought that he was not given the recognition he deserved... This video explained a lot more... And magnified his humble presence more..
Awesome very well presented & educational every time I watch this series I feel edified, uplifted wanting to watch more.
Yes said, hunger for God’s word and allow St. Joseph to intercede!
Joseph was a God loving man, who carried his love of God in raising all of his children.
LOL
Thank you for pointing out the masonry work vs. the carpentry work. I always wondered how he could do so much w/ wood when there weren't many trees in Israel.
They brought cedars from Lebanon, and lumber from other countries.
God could not have chosen a better man for father of his son.
I just had my third miracle baby born on August 15. We named him Julian Joseph. Although I wanted to honor Mary, we already had Marian names with our first two children and this time couldn't agree on a boy's name we both loved. I had prayed to St. Joseph since recently I heard he is known to "make possible what seems impossible". I had a couple things to ask through his intercession and they were granted! I'm really glad my husband agreed on the name Joseph and I know St. Joseph will be looking after this little soul.
Father Joseph was a beyond amazing pure hearted kind man and father to Jesus. 😊❤
I can’t wait until our wedding supper...blessed be his name...
St. Joseph the Silent. Thank you.
True. I’ve never seen things like that before you say it... his silence is his testimony of humility 🙏🏻
Such an overlooked person of scripture.. it’s actually ridiculous this fascinating and mysterious man isn’t enquired about more, there’s a lot to learn from Joesph.. Thanks be to Christ !
We black Hebrew Israelite know all about our ancestor...he's no mystery to us.
Joseph was the most remarkable man of his age and time. Humble and obedient to God's law and customs. That's why God chose hime ti be the foster father of God the Son
My favorite saint of all time is St.Joseph,happy that this 2021 is attributed to this wonderful step-father of lord jesus.He was such a noble man upon which Lord has chosen him to look after and raise his son,a blessing given solely to him that no other saints on this Earth got...
HOLY JOSEPH SJCH AN EXAMPLE OF KINDNESS.SUCH A NOBLE CHARAKTER.
ALL HUMANITY OWNS HIM LOVE AND RESPEKT
He was not holy, read your bibles he was just a man 👨
He is amazing for loving Jesus as his own. Also when he protected and loved Mary
Ahh, this is so valuable! Thank you for this information and tribute to Joseph!
You are welcome! Merry Christmas!
St joseph is a True example of an amazing father and husband ❤st joseph pray for us❤
Just listening to this account made me love Joseph so much more than I did earlier. Truly God's choice of an adoptive father was perfect. I wonder why he died so early though considering that those nations lived long and healthy lives
I love this story.i love it that Joseph's life is being told because no one think's how significant his role was in life. He is a prime example on how a father and husband should be. Great story thanks!
10-3-2020,I glad to read the story of Joseph, never heard to much about him, in Matthew, 1-18-25.
Amazing. God knows us from inside out. Thank you Lord for selecting Joseph a man of honor to be the earthly father of Jesus.
“Where does he get this wisdom and the power to do miracles?” Then they scoffed, “He’s just the carpenter’s son, and we know Mary, his mother, and his brothers-James, Joseph,[f] Simon, and Judas. All his sisters live right here among us. Where did he learn all these things?” And they were deeply offended and refused to believe in him. Mat 13:57
God Bless you for sharing the beautiful testimony of Joseph's life.He was truly a man of solid conviction expressed by those who shared their comments with us. Amen
Very insightful. The details you've added bring a lot of depth. Great job. Thanks for sharing
You are welcome! Glad you enjoyed the video.
Thank you for bringing st joseph to the fore. He deserves our love and affection for the beautiful love devoted care of jesus and Mary. We love him dearly. He is still working marvels in our lives.blessing and prayers from Sydney Australia ❤❤❤
He was an amazing person
What absolutely AWESOME Christmas information! I’m blessed and very grateful for your ministry. Thank you
Well, thank you and so glad to hear you enjoyed the video so much! Make sure to check out my other Christmas videos in the playlist "The Nativity Story." I think you will enjoy them as well. Merry Christmas!
Saint Joseph is so incredible. He did so much for me. He looks after us and help us in work and daily life troubles. Saint Joseph pray for us 🙏🏻😭
This moved me into tears. His faith, mercy and his obedience to God is why God chose him to father Jesus. The same can be said about Mary. God chose this young couple to be parents of his beloved son because he knows their heart and their faith and characters. He knows who they are.
He didn't father JESUS, he had stewardship over JESUS, as a human father figure.
@@carolbassant5396 That's what I meant, a human father figure.
Beautiful
In this mordern world if Every man could be a true loving father to his children and a great humble friend to his wife. What a loving and beautiful fly they can be and remain in peace, love and harmony always.
From a Catholic perspective Joseph was a just man and he is mentioned in the Roman Canon during the Eucharistic prayer.
The following is a song I learned when I was a boy in Catholic School growing up in the 1960's
St Joseph God has given you all workers for your own,
Teach them to do the best they can, with steel and wood and stone.
St Joseph God has chosen you to keep His church from harm,
Protect the CHURCH as once you held the Christ Child in your arms.
Saint Joseph please protect us forever be our guide,
Help us to love Jesus more in and His laws abide.
Nice throwback, still relevant today! St. Joseph, Terror of Demons, pray for us!
Just a Man? In Catholic Church he is a SAINT among the Saints, the Terror of Demons cause the Demons are terrified by Saint Joshep and year 2021 was oficially Saint Joshep Year in Catholic Church.
Thank you Joseph for taking care of baby Jesus and Mary
God bless you thank you for reminding us all
You are welcome!
God the Father, in His great wisdom, chose a good man like Joseph to fill such a big role because he knew that Jesus, in His formative years, needed a good earthly example. God, the Father, chose Joseph to be Jesus’s daddy.
Beautiful
Reactive Mr. Joseph is really full of Love with protection spirit Good first class Gentleman.
Great person in human history.
Joseph was a carpenter hero. He is a great role model for men today. He stuck by the woman he loved and at times must have felt so inadequate compared to Jesus's biological father, I mean, how to you even compete with the FATHER. You can't, but he gave it his all and loves Jesus as his own✝️❤
I love that movie, the Christ child!! Blessed be St Joseph!!
When we only intend to read the bible but not understand it we will miss a great story such as this. At some point in our lives, we ignored his story. Thank you for sharing with us the story of Mr. Joseph. He was an amazing man and the most amazing father.
Beautiful! St. Joseph, pray for us.
The year of St. Joseph is upon us! St Joseph, Patron of the Domestic Church, pray for us...and teach us what you know ⚜️
Dead people can't pray for anybody. Only Jesus is alive. Wake up! Stop following religion. Religion is dead and it will lead you all to hell.Follow Jesus until is not too late. Only JESUS can save you.
I love you my patron St. Joseph...you who is overlooked so often, my dear St. Joseph may many more young men carry forward those beautiful qualities God gave you! Amen!🔥
God plans are wonderful...
God is good, all the time!
Joseph was definitely the best example of a father. God knew how essential Jesus' upbringing was in order to fulfill His purpose.
Likewise, it is very significant that parents are obedient to the word of God through that they can manage and raise a godly generation, a generation that fulfills God's purpose.
First time i heard that joseph was a younger person
Valerie you should listen to the audio book called THE LIFE OF MARY AS SEEN BY THE SAINTS AND MYSTICS, you will be amazed by what you learn.
He would of had to have been young to get the Blessed Virgin Mary and new born Jesus into Egypt.
Same here. Always heard he was 40ish & established as a Carpenter. In those days it was common for older men who'd established homes & trades to take younger Brides for childbirth. Many Widows were around back then, too, as a result.
I was also surprised. My mom and other people said he was a grown man in his 40s and Mary was still a minor when they got married
Joseph was an old man when he and Mary were married. Joseph was amazing man and an amazing stepfather. He and Mary never had any other children. Mary only had one child that was Jesus.
St.Joseph please pray for my children and all the abandoned children of the world.
Beautiful king of the king's he is God yeshuah
My lord God is yhashuah
I always had a great respect & love for this wonderful man in the life of Jesus & Mary. They must love him greatly & rightly so. Thanks for posting this.
You are welcome! Yes, he was an amazing man!
Jospehs character melted my heart
he gave me bad stomach gas.
Joseph, the earthly father of Jesus. Jesus, the Son of Man, Joseph, and the Son of God, Jehovah.Jesus was honored to be a king yet he was so humble like a carpenter. There is no one else like Him to ever walk this earth and will never again be. Hallelujah.
I learned so much from this video. God bless you and thank you
God knows our heart. He chose Joseph for a reason. He has great attributes that men in our time can learn from. I pray my son grows up to be honorable like him.
