1 00:00:00,360 --> 00:00:03,600 Speaker 1: Of the increase of his government and of peace. There 2 00:00:03,640 --> 00:00:07,600 Speaker 1: shall be no end on David's throne and on his kingdom. 3 00:00:07,800 --> 00:00:11,400 Speaker 1: To establish it and to uphold it with justice and 4 00:00:11,520 --> 00:00:16,760 Speaker 1: with righteousness. From that time on even forever, the zeal 5 00:00:16,840 --> 00:00:21,800 Speaker 1: of yahweh of armies will perform this Isaiah nine seven. 6 00:00:24,000 --> 00:00:28,280 Speaker 1: Dear Lord, this season we rejoice in the birth of Christ, 7 00:00:28,760 --> 00:00:32,240 Speaker 1: whose arrival was foretold by the prophets, and whose reign 8 00:00:32,440 --> 00:00:36,199 Speaker 1: will never end. We stand in awe of your divine 9 00:00:36,240 --> 00:00:42,879 Speaker 1: plan so beautifully unfolded in that humble manger. Your redemption 10 00:00:43,080 --> 00:00:48,400 Speaker 1: plan brings hope, peace, justice, and eternal life to all 11 00:00:48,560 --> 00:00:53,040 Speaker 1: who believe. As we decorate our homes with lights and 12 00:00:53,360 --> 00:00:57,320 Speaker 1: sing carols and share gifts, let us also share the 13 00:00:57,400 --> 00:01:03,640 Speaker 1: message of Christ's eternal kingdom, a kingdom built on love, mercy, 14 00:01:04,200 --> 00:01:09,199 Speaker 1: and righteousness. Help us to be ambassadors of this kingdom 15 00:01:09,240 --> 00:01:13,880 Speaker 1: here on earth, extending your peace and joy to all 16 00:01:14,080 --> 00:01:18,800 Speaker 1: around us. In the name of Jesus, whose birth we 17 00:01:18,959 --> 00:01:25,000 Speaker 1: celebrate and whose return we await, we pray Amen. 18 00:01:27,800 --> 00:01:31,800 Speaker 2: Joseph's heart was a storm of emotion, his dreams shattered, 19 00:01:32,040 --> 00:01:34,240 Speaker 2: trust broken, and love betrayed. 20 00:01:35,400 --> 00:01:35,959 Speaker 1: The news of. 21 00:01:35,920 --> 00:01:40,640 Speaker 2: Mary's pregnancy had been a blow unlike any other. Anger, confusion, 22 00:01:40,760 --> 00:01:43,399 Speaker 2: and a profound sense of loss gnawed at his soul. 23 00:01:44,040 --> 00:01:46,560 Speaker 2: He lay down on a grassy hill where he and 24 00:01:46,600 --> 00:01:49,720 Speaker 2: Mary had one shared dreams and made promises to one another. 25 00:01:50,160 --> 00:01:53,240 Speaker 2: Lying on the soft earth, he looked up at the stars. 26 00:01:53,720 --> 00:01:57,880 Speaker 2: Those distant beacons of hope and guidance seemed dull, dimmed 27 00:01:57,920 --> 00:02:01,360 Speaker 2: by his grief and anger. His mind replayed their meeting 28 00:02:01,440 --> 00:02:04,120 Speaker 2: earlier in the day. He could still see the look 29 00:02:04,160 --> 00:02:07,720 Speaker 2: of regret in Mary's eyes or was it sorrow? Her 30 00:02:07,720 --> 00:02:11,720 Speaker 2: father's stern and unyielding voice echoed in his ears, granting 31 00:02:11,800 --> 00:02:15,120 Speaker 2: him the right to stone her. The very thoughts and 32 00:02:15,200 --> 00:02:18,520 Speaker 2: a shudder through him. How had they come to this? 33 00:02:19,240 --> 00:02:22,120 Speaker 2: Tears welled in his eyes and he clenched his fist, 34 00:02:22,560 --> 00:02:26,600 Speaker 2: wrestling with helplessness and anger. And yet through it all, 35 00:02:26,800 --> 00:02:30,000 Speaker 2: he couldn't ignore the look in Mary's eyes. She didn't 36 00:02:30,040 --> 00:02:33,360 Speaker 2: carry herself like someone who had done something wrong? Was 37 00:02:33,360 --> 00:02:36,480 Speaker 2: there somehow more to this story that he just couldn't grasp. 38 00:02:36,720 --> 00:02:40,720 Speaker 2: A fatigue slowly overcame his restless mind. He drifted into 39 00:02:40,720 --> 00:02:44,880 Speaker 2: a fitful sleep. His last thoughts were a prayer for clarity, guidance, 40 00:02:45,000 --> 00:02:45,600 Speaker 2: and mercy. 41 00:02:47,680 --> 00:02:50,760 Speaker 3: Hello, I'm pastor Jack Graham with today's episode of the 42 00:02:50,800 --> 00:02:54,560 Speaker 3: Bible in a Year podcast. Today's story is inspired by 43 00:02:54,600 --> 00:02:58,880 Speaker 3: Matthew Chapter one, verse nineteen, when Joseph discovers that Mary 44 00:02:59,000 --> 00:03:03,000 Speaker 3: is pregnant. Joseph is a central figure in the Christmas 45 00:03:03,040 --> 00:03:07,840 Speaker 3: story and is often overshadowed by the more prominent characters. Yep, 46 00:03:08,160 --> 00:03:12,120 Speaker 3: I believe Joseph is an unheralded hero of great character. 47 00:03:13,200 --> 00:03:16,680 Speaker 3: In this story, we find Joseph and a poignant crossroads, 48 00:03:17,280 --> 00:03:21,079 Speaker 3: grappling with feelings of betrayal while standing on the precipice 49 00:03:21,120 --> 00:03:24,360 Speaker 3: of a divine intervention that would change the course of 50 00:03:24,360 --> 00:03:27,880 Speaker 3: the world. The Birth of Jesus was filled with key 51 00:03:28,000 --> 00:03:31,679 Speaker 3: moments when everything could have been thwarted. One of those 52 00:03:31,720 --> 00:03:35,000 Speaker 3: moments will happen in this story when Joseph has the 53 00:03:35,080 --> 00:03:40,840 Speaker 3: right to stone marry for adultery. Joseph will find himself 54 00:03:40,880 --> 00:03:43,640 Speaker 3: in a position that many of us find ourselves in. 55 00:03:44,960 --> 00:03:47,320 Speaker 3: We all have moments where we can lash out in 56 00:03:47,400 --> 00:03:52,600 Speaker 3: anger and show judgment, or choose the path of mercy. Often, 57 00:03:52,920 --> 00:03:56,240 Speaker 3: the way of compassion is the more challenging trail to tread. 58 00:03:57,800 --> 00:04:01,360 Speaker 3: Joseph could end all his hurt and problems by showing 59 00:04:01,440 --> 00:04:05,320 Speaker 3: Mary judgment. But the measure of a man's character is 60 00:04:05,360 --> 00:04:09,520 Speaker 3: often revealed not in how he uses his power. Jesus said, 61 00:04:09,640 --> 00:04:12,400 Speaker 3: blessed of the meek, for they shall inherit the earth. 62 00:04:13,280 --> 00:04:17,600 Speaker 3: Meekness does not mean weakness, It means power under control. 63 00:04:18,760 --> 00:04:22,279 Speaker 3: Will Joseph lash out and uses authority to end Mary, 64 00:04:22,880 --> 00:04:26,480 Speaker 3: or will he show meekness and mercy ushering in the 65 00:04:26,520 --> 00:04:30,880 Speaker 3: greatest story ever told? Let's find out now in this 66 00:04:31,200 --> 00:04:36,200 Speaker 3: cinematic retelling of Matthew Chapter one, verse nineteen. Afterwards, we'll 67 00:04:36,320 --> 00:04:38,919 Speaker 3: unpack the deep and hidden themes. 68 00:04:41,000 --> 00:04:43,640 Speaker 2: In the depths of Slumber, Joseph was caught up in 69 00:04:43,680 --> 00:04:47,520 Speaker 2: a vivid and terrifying dream. He found himself standing at 70 00:04:47,520 --> 00:04:50,480 Speaker 2: the base of a dark and foreboding hill. Jagged rocks 71 00:04:50,560 --> 00:04:54,120 Speaker 2: lace the trail ascending the mountain. Lightning flashed above it, 72 00:04:54,360 --> 00:04:57,479 Speaker 2: revealing a brief and terrifying image of a tree. No, 73 00:04:57,920 --> 00:05:03,400 Speaker 2: not a tree, something else, something more terrifying. Joseph couldn't 74 00:05:03,440 --> 00:05:06,760 Speaker 2: quite make it out, so he moved closer. In the darkness, 75 00:05:07,000 --> 00:05:10,120 Speaker 2: Joseph could see a silhouetted figure hanging from the tree. 76 00:05:10,680 --> 00:05:13,880 Speaker 2: He marched up the hill, working against the wind in rain, 77 00:05:14,400 --> 00:05:16,799 Speaker 2: he stumbled and fell on to his hands and knees. 78 00:05:17,320 --> 00:05:20,680 Speaker 2: Joseph looked at his hands in terror. The ground beneath 79 00:05:20,720 --> 00:05:23,080 Speaker 2: him was soaked with a mixture of water and blood. 80 00:05:23,800 --> 00:05:26,240 Speaker 2: He screamed and looked up again. At the top of 81 00:05:26,279 --> 00:05:29,480 Speaker 2: the hill. The river of water and blood was running 82 00:05:29,560 --> 00:05:33,719 Speaker 2: downward from the tree above. What is up there? He thought? 83 00:05:34,480 --> 00:05:38,320 Speaker 2: The lightning flashed again with piercing light, and Joseph immediately 84 00:05:38,320 --> 00:05:41,159 Speaker 2: found himself elsewhere. He was at the base of a 85 00:05:41,200 --> 00:05:44,560 Speaker 2: cave carved into the side of a mountain. All was quiet, 86 00:05:44,760 --> 00:05:47,320 Speaker 2: and the only light source was from within the cave. 87 00:05:47,839 --> 00:05:50,839 Speaker 2: Joseph followed the faint glimmer, keeping his balance on the 88 00:05:50,839 --> 00:05:55,080 Speaker 2: cave's jagged walls. As he inched closer, the air became warmer, 89 00:05:55,480 --> 00:05:58,000 Speaker 2: like a room filled with the comfort of a fireplace. 90 00:05:58,600 --> 00:06:01,680 Speaker 2: The entire cave became filled with the scent of frankincense 91 00:06:01,720 --> 00:06:04,920 Speaker 2: and myrrh. As Joseph navigated the cave, he could hear 92 00:06:05,000 --> 00:06:08,839 Speaker 2: the sound of a child's cry, then a hushing lullabad. 93 00:06:09,240 --> 00:06:11,800 Speaker 2: The voice singing was gentle and soft, like the evening 94 00:06:11,839 --> 00:06:16,560 Speaker 2: spring breeze. Joseph knew that voice Mary is that you, 95 00:06:17,200 --> 00:06:19,719 Speaker 2: He gasped. Joseph picked up his pace and rounded the 96 00:06:19,760 --> 00:06:22,560 Speaker 2: corner towards the light. But before he could see anything, 97 00:06:22,800 --> 00:06:26,320 Speaker 2: the cave flooded with water, and Joseph found himself swimming 98 00:06:26,360 --> 00:06:28,919 Speaker 2: for his life amidst a violent storm in the middle 99 00:06:28,920 --> 00:06:32,240 Speaker 2: of the sea. Waves and breakers crashed over him. He 100 00:06:32,320 --> 00:06:35,680 Speaker 2: swam but made no progress. The waves thrashed and the 101 00:06:35,760 --> 00:06:39,320 Speaker 2: riptide dragged him down underneath. Joseph sank in a free 102 00:06:39,400 --> 00:06:42,240 Speaker 2: fold into the black abyss until a current pushed him 103 00:06:42,240 --> 00:06:45,880 Speaker 2: onto the shore. The storm subsided, and Joseph looked out 104 00:06:46,000 --> 00:06:50,360 Speaker 2: at a golden sunset hovering over the glassy sea. Suddenly, 105 00:06:50,760 --> 00:06:55,000 Speaker 2: a luminous figure appeared before him, an angel standing upon 106 00:06:55,080 --> 00:06:58,760 Speaker 2: the glassy water. His eyes were filled with wisdom and compassion. 107 00:06:59,400 --> 00:07:03,680 Speaker 2: Joseph was struck by awe and reverence. Fear not, Joseph, 108 00:07:04,120 --> 00:07:07,640 Speaker 2: son of David, what is conceived. 109 00:07:07,160 --> 00:07:10,480 Speaker 4: And Mary is of the Holy Spirit. She will bear 110 00:07:10,520 --> 00:07:13,960 Speaker 4: a son, and you shall call his name Jesus, where 111 00:07:13,960 --> 00:07:17,040 Speaker 4: he will save his people from their sins. The words 112 00:07:17,040 --> 00:07:20,320 Speaker 4: wrapped around Joseph like a warm embrace, filling him with 113 00:07:20,360 --> 00:07:25,600 Speaker 4: an understanding that transcended earthly wisdom. Joseph wanted to ask questions, 114 00:07:25,800 --> 00:07:29,080 Speaker 4: but he couldn't speak. Instead, his gaze was turned to 115 00:07:29,120 --> 00:07:32,920 Speaker 4: the sea. The sunset's colors painted the glassy water with 116 00:07:33,040 --> 00:07:38,400 Speaker 4: images of prophecy, promise, and divine love. He saw his forefather, 117 00:07:38,720 --> 00:07:42,040 Speaker 4: David and the mighty Temple. He saw a humble child, 118 00:07:42,320 --> 00:07:46,800 Speaker 4: a mighty king, a savior and a servant. He saw Mary, 119 00:07:47,040 --> 00:07:50,520 Speaker 4: her face radiant with grace, her role, and the divine plan, 120 00:07:50,720 --> 00:07:54,480 Speaker 4: both beautiful and burdensome. Joseph was left with a profound 121 00:07:54,480 --> 00:07:58,400 Speaker 4: sense of peace, a clarity that resonated through every fiber. 122 00:07:58,120 --> 00:07:58,640 Speaker 2: Of his being. 123 00:07:59,400 --> 00:08:00,560 Speaker 1: He knew what he must do. 124 00:08:01,040 --> 00:08:04,160 Speaker 2: The sea receded into the sunset, as if gravity's force 125 00:08:04,240 --> 00:08:07,520 Speaker 2: was polling it backwards. A great wall of water loomed 126 00:08:07,520 --> 00:08:11,520 Speaker 2: over him. Then, with a mighty crash, the ocean fell 127 00:08:11,600 --> 00:08:16,400 Speaker 2: on to Joseph. He awoke with panic, confusion, and awe. 128 00:08:16,520 --> 00:08:19,000 Speaker 2: The night was quiet, and the light of the stars 129 00:08:19,120 --> 00:08:22,920 Speaker 2: was replaced with the rising sun's first light. Joseph stood 130 00:08:22,920 --> 00:08:24,880 Speaker 2: to his feet and wiped the sweat from his brow. 131 00:08:25,520 --> 00:08:28,600 Speaker 2: The morning sun radiated over the hills, splashing the valley 132 00:08:28,640 --> 00:08:32,360 Speaker 2: below with vibrant color. Joseph's once anxious heart was filled 133 00:08:32,360 --> 00:08:36,000 Speaker 2: with excitement. He still didn't entirely know what was happening, 134 00:08:36,280 --> 00:08:39,120 Speaker 2: but he knew God was on the move. Joseph's path 135 00:08:39,200 --> 00:08:42,120 Speaker 2: was more evident now. He would take Mary as his wife, 136 00:08:42,440 --> 00:08:45,960 Speaker 2: trust in the Lord's plan, and embrace this miraculous journey 137 00:08:45,960 --> 00:08:48,560 Speaker 2: before them, For the child they would raise was not 138 00:08:48,640 --> 00:08:51,520 Speaker 2: just a fulfillment of prophecy, but a beacon of hope 139 00:08:51,559 --> 00:08:55,000 Speaker 2: and redemption for all mankind. The doubts and fears of 140 00:08:55,080 --> 00:08:59,479 Speaker 2: yesterday were gone, replaced by faith, love, and a determination 141 00:08:59,640 --> 00:09:02,240 Speaker 2: to serve the will of the Most High. It wasn't 142 00:09:02,280 --> 00:09:03,959 Speaker 2: the life Joseph imagined for himself. 143 00:09:04,240 --> 00:09:04,960 Speaker 1: It was better. 144 00:09:05,640 --> 00:09:08,720 Speaker 2: Although struggle awaited him, it was the path to purpose. 145 00:09:09,200 --> 00:09:11,760 Speaker 2: Joseph ran down the hill back to Nazareth with love 146 00:09:11,840 --> 00:09:14,360 Speaker 2: in his heart and courage in his bones. 147 00:09:19,240 --> 00:09:23,360 Speaker 3: This story offered us a dramatized version of Joseph's dream. 148 00:09:23,840 --> 00:09:26,520 Speaker 3: Truth be told. We don't know the exact imagery of 149 00:09:26,559 --> 00:09:29,559 Speaker 3: his dream, but we do know what God told him 150 00:09:29,559 --> 00:09:32,960 Speaker 3: through his vision. The Angel of the Lord came to 151 00:09:33,040 --> 00:09:37,360 Speaker 3: Joseph and addressed him as Joseph son of David. Does 152 00:09:37,400 --> 00:09:41,080 Speaker 3: that title sound familiar to you? If you've read the 153 00:09:41,120 --> 00:09:44,439 Speaker 3: Gospels before, you'll know that Son of David is one 154 00:09:44,480 --> 00:09:48,320 Speaker 3: of the many titles given to Jesus. The title son 155 00:09:48,360 --> 00:09:53,040 Speaker 3: of David is one of those. Both Joseph and Mary 156 00:09:53,080 --> 00:09:56,400 Speaker 3: were descendants from the lineage of King David. Now this 157 00:09:56,440 --> 00:10:00,280 Speaker 3: holds significant way, since the Messiah was prophesied to come 158 00:10:00,320 --> 00:10:04,960 Speaker 3: from the line of David. Second Samuel Chapter seven mentions 159 00:10:05,000 --> 00:10:10,080 Speaker 3: the Messiah coming directly from David's line. However, the title 160 00:10:10,280 --> 00:10:15,000 Speaker 3: son of David embodies more than mere physical lineage. It 161 00:10:15,040 --> 00:10:20,640 Speaker 3: acknowledges Jesus as a king greater than David. Isaiah Chapter 162 00:10:20,720 --> 00:10:23,640 Speaker 3: nine is one of the most famous Christmas prophecies we have. 163 00:10:24,440 --> 00:10:28,959 Speaker 3: It reads like this, for a child is born to us, 164 00:10:29,360 --> 00:10:32,160 Speaker 3: a son is given to us, and the government will 165 00:10:32,200 --> 00:10:35,559 Speaker 3: be on his shoulders. His name will be called wonderful 166 00:10:35,679 --> 00:10:42,000 Speaker 3: counselor Mighty God, everlasting Father, Prince of Peace, of the 167 00:10:42,000 --> 00:10:44,880 Speaker 3: increase of his government and of peace. There shall be 168 00:10:44,960 --> 00:10:48,560 Speaker 3: no end on David's throne and on his kingdom. To 169 00:10:48,720 --> 00:10:53,000 Speaker 3: establish it and to uphold it with justice and with righteousness. 170 00:10:53,120 --> 00:10:57,280 Speaker 3: From that time on even forever. The zeal of Yahweh 171 00:10:57,320 --> 00:11:03,920 Speaker 3: of armies will perform this. When individuals addressed Jesus as 172 00:11:04,000 --> 00:11:07,120 Speaker 3: the son of David. Their words were a testament to 173 00:11:07,160 --> 00:11:11,360 Speaker 3: their faith in him. The Pharisees, entrenched in pride and 174 00:11:11,440 --> 00:11:15,160 Speaker 3: self righteousness, remained blind to the truth that others so 175 00:11:15,320 --> 00:11:21,960 Speaker 3: readily accepted, and they became adversarial towards Jesus. Jesus used 176 00:11:22,000 --> 00:11:25,160 Speaker 3: the title son of David to confound the Pharisees further, 177 00:11:25,640 --> 00:11:29,560 Speaker 3: questioning how the Messiah, being David's son, could be addressed 178 00:11:29,559 --> 00:11:35,840 Speaker 3: as my Lord by David himself. This puzzle exposed their 179 00:11:35,920 --> 00:11:40,600 Speaker 3: lack of understanding regarding the Messiah's true nature. This event 180 00:11:40,720 --> 00:11:44,280 Speaker 3: illuminates the deeper meaning of the title. The Messiah is 181 00:11:44,360 --> 00:11:48,359 Speaker 3: more than David's physical son. He is greater than David, 182 00:11:49,440 --> 00:11:52,800 Speaker 3: and as stated in Revelation chapter twenty two, verse sixteen, 183 00:11:53,360 --> 00:11:58,920 Speaker 3: he's both the root and the offspring of David. Joseph 184 00:11:59,000 --> 00:12:01,960 Speaker 3: was the right man to raise God's son, not just 185 00:12:02,040 --> 00:12:04,600 Speaker 3: because he was from the line of David, but because 186 00:12:04,640 --> 00:12:10,240 Speaker 3: he was a man of integrity, courage, and obedience. Joseph's 187 00:12:10,240 --> 00:12:14,679 Speaker 3: immediate response to this dream was obedience. He was not 188 00:12:14,760 --> 00:12:18,400 Speaker 3: merely accepting Mary. He was accepting God's call to be 189 00:12:18,480 --> 00:12:22,960 Speaker 3: part of a divine mission to take Mary as his wife. 190 00:12:23,000 --> 00:12:30,480 Speaker 3: Amidst societal expectations and norms would require immense courage. Joseph's 191 00:12:30,520 --> 00:12:34,520 Speaker 3: courage was founded on faith, trust in God's word, and 192 00:12:34,720 --> 00:12:41,000 Speaker 3: his understanding of the enormity of God's plan. These qualities 193 00:12:41,040 --> 00:12:46,640 Speaker 3: made his forefather, David, a beloved and influential king. Being 194 00:12:46,679 --> 00:12:50,360 Speaker 3: the stepfather to Jesus knowing the child was not his own, 195 00:12:50,760 --> 00:12:55,679 Speaker 3: yet embracing him as his son was an act of 196 00:12:55,800 --> 00:13:02,319 Speaker 3: unmatched bravery. It required putting aside personal emotions, fears, and 197 00:13:02,440 --> 00:13:07,600 Speaker 3: societal judgments. The story of Joseph's dream interweaves themes of 198 00:13:07,679 --> 00:13:13,480 Speaker 3: divine intervention, obedience, faith, courage, and human cooperation with the 199 00:13:13,480 --> 00:13:17,720 Speaker 3: divine will. It reminds us of God's sovereign plan and 200 00:13:17,840 --> 00:13:22,760 Speaker 3: the individuals chosen to participate in it. As we celebrate Christmas, 201 00:13:22,800 --> 00:13:26,080 Speaker 3: may we reflect on Joseph's role in the Christmas narrative, 202 00:13:26,440 --> 00:13:31,360 Speaker 3: his courage, bravery, and integrity. May we be inspired to 203 00:13:31,440 --> 00:13:35,160 Speaker 3: live with similar faith, to heed God's call in our lives, 204 00:13:35,400 --> 00:13:39,800 Speaker 3: and to act with integrity and bravery, embodying the true 205 00:13:39,800 --> 00:13:44,160 Speaker 3: spirit of Christmas. The story of Joseph's dream is a 206 00:13:44,200 --> 00:13:49,160 Speaker 3: timeless reminder that God's plans are perfect and he equips 207 00:13:49,160 --> 00:13:55,040 Speaker 3: those he calls, even in the most unexpected circumstances. In 208 00:13:55,120 --> 00:13:58,640 Speaker 3: our next episode, Joseph will approach Mary and they'll fight 209 00:13:58,720 --> 00:14:03,319 Speaker 3: against culture and slight. Together. Their union will strengthen them 210 00:14:03,360 --> 00:14:06,320 Speaker 3: for the trials ahead and provide an on remp for 211 00:14:06,440 --> 00:14:10,480 Speaker 3: Jesus to be born.
