So here is a young girl who is suppose to be a virgin (prophesy – Isaiah 7:14), pregnant and not married yet (Mat. 1:18).  And she knows that the baby she is carrying is God – Mt. 1:23. But she also knows, for being pregnant, that everyone including her family, friends, and the town all think she has slept with someone making her an adulterer and according to the Mosaic law, she should be stoned to death (Ex. 20:14). But she knows this isn’t true (Lk. 1:26-38).
