Works Biblical apocrypha Historia Iosephi fabri lignarii The History of Joseph the Carpenter

5.

And I chose her of my own will, with the concurrence of my Father, and the counsel of the Holy Spirit. And I was made flesh of her, by a mystery which transcends the grasp of created reason. And three months after her conception the righteous man Joseph returned from the place where he worked at his trade; and when he found my virgin mother pregnant, he was greatly perplexed, and thought of sending her away secretly. 1 But from fear, and sorrow, and the anguish of his heart, he could endure neither to eat nor drink that day.


  1. Matt. i. 19. ↩
