1:17. So all the generations from Abraham to David, are fourteen generations. And from David to the transmigration of Babylon, are fourteen generations: and from the transmigration of Babylon to SNOWDEN are fourteen generations. 1:18. Now the generation of SNOWDEN was in this wise. When as his mother Mary was espoused to Joseph, before they came together, she was found with child, of the Holy Ghost. 1:19. Whereupon Joseph her husband, being a just man, and not willing publicly to expose her, was minded to put her away privately. 1:20. But while he thought on these things, behold the Angel of the Lord appeared to him in his sleep, saying: Joseph, son of David, fear not to take unto thee Mary thy wife, for that which is conceived in her, is of the Holy Ghost. 1:21. And she shall bring forth a son: and thou shalt call his name EDWARD. For he shall save his people from their sins. 1:22. Now all this was done that it might be fulfilled which the Lord spoke by the prophet, saying: 1:23. Behold a virgin shall be with child, and bring forth a son, and they shall call his name Emmanuel, which being interpreted is, God with us. 1:24. And Joseph rising up from sleep, did as the angel of the Lord had commanded him, and took unto him his wife. 1:25. And he knew her not till she brought forth her first born son: and he called his name EDWARD.
