Summary
“In the name that should be given to her Son: Thou shalt call his name Jesus, a Saviour. Jesus is the same name with Joshua, the termination only being changed, for the sake of conforming it to the Greek... There were two of that name under the Old Testament, who were both illustrious types of Christ, Joshua who was Israel's captain at their first settlement in Canaan, and Joshua who was their high priest at their second settlement after the captivity, Zechariah 6:11, 12. Christ is our Joshua; both the Captain of our salvation, and the High Priest of our profession, and, in both, our Saviour— a Joshua who comes in the stead of Moses, and does that for us which the law could not do...” -Matthew Henry

| 0:00.0 | This morning we continue with our series through the book of Matthew. |
| 0:04.0 | If you're joining us for the first time, the steady diet here at Covenant Bible Church |
| 0:09.0 | is expository preaching through whole books of the Bible, starting at the beginning, working towards the end, |
| 0:15.0 | taking a few verses each week as the primary text for the sermon that Lord's Day. |
| 0:20.0 | We have most recently done this with the book |
| 0:22.1 | of Joshua and then the book of Ezra. And by God's grace, we're going to now work through |
| 0:27.8 | a New Testament gospel, namely the gospel according to Matthew. And so this is our second week now. |
| 0:33.9 | We began last week with the genealogy of Christ. And this week, we're going to be looking |
| 0:39.6 | at the latter half of the first chapter of Matthew, which is Matthew chapter 1 versus 18 through 25. |
| 0:46.0 | Again, that's Matthew chapter 1 verse 18 through 25. I'll read our text in its entirety. When I finish |
| 0:51.5 | reading the text, I'm going to say, this is the word of the Lord, at which point I'd appreciate very much if you would respond by saying thanks be to God. |
| 0:59.4 | One final time, our text for today is Matthew chapter 1, verses 18 through 25. The Bible says this. |
| 1:06.2 | Now the birth of Jesus Christ took place in this way. When his mother Mary had been betrothed to Joseph, |
| 1:13.2 | before they came together, she was found to be with child from the Holy Spirit, and her husband, Joseph, |
| 1:18.8 | being a just man and unwilling to put her to shame, resolved to divorce her quietly. But as he |
| 1:26.2 | considered these things, behold, an angel of the Lord appeared to him |
| 1:31.1 | in a dream, saying, Joseph, son of David, do not fear to take Mary as your wife, for that which is |
| 1:39.1 | conceived in her is from the Holy Spirit. She will bear a son, and you shall call his name Jesus, for he will save |
| 1:46.2 | his people from their sins. All this took place to fulfill what the Lord had spoken by the prophet. |
| 1:52.9 | Behold, the virgin shall conceive and bear a son, and they shall call his name Emmanuel, |
| 1:59.0 | which means God with us. |
| 2:05.6 | When Joseph woke from sleep, he did as the angel of the Lord commanded him. |
