Joseph (Lawful Father of Christ)

Ioseph was the lawful father of Yahshua Christ, whom had become so when he accepted Christ in the womb of Mariam.

History

Conception of Christ

In Matthew 1:19, the phrase “put away” is a literal rendering of the Greek term for what we would divorce, and in the verse we can see Joseph was not even really married yet, and Mary must have still be living in the home of her own family, so we see that the term is used in a legal sense

Passing on the Throne of David

When Joseph accepted Christ in the womb of Mary, He then became the lawful heir of Joseph even though He was not Joseph's genetic son.

If one thinks about it, this is exactly the way in which the children of Cain came to claim the inheritance of Adam, long beforetime in the Garden of Eden. In fact all of the circumstances of the birth of the Christ mirror those of the birth of Cain which caused a need for the Christ! When Adam accepted Eve, he accepted Cain in her womb and Cain became his first-born heir. When Joseph acceded to the instructions of the angel and accepted Mary, he accepted Christ in her womb as his first-born heir!

From The Lost Books of The Bible and The Forgotten Books of Eden, “The Protevangelion” 10:1-10:

“1 And when her sixth month was come, Joseph returned from his building houses abroad, which was his trade, and entering into the house, found the Virgin grown big: 2 Then smiting upon his face, he said, With what face can I look up to the Lord my God? or, what shall I say concerning this young woman? 3 For I received her a Virgin out of the temple of the Lord my God! and have not preserved her such! 4 Who has thus deceived me? Who has committed this evil in my house, and seducing the Virgin from me, hath defiled her? 5 Is not the history of Adam exactly accomplished in me? 6 For in the very instant of his glory, the serpent came and found Eve alone, and seduced her. 7 Just after the same manner it has happened to me. 8 Then Joseph arising from the ground, called her, and said, O thou who hast been so much favoured by God, why hast thou done this? 9 Why hast thou thus debased thy soul, who wast educated in the Holy of Holies, and received thy food from the hand of angels? 10 But she, with a flood of tears, replied, I am innocent, and have known no man.”

No matter what we think about this apocryphal book, it can surely be demonstrated to be of great antiquity, and its author knew the story of the Bible.
