Matthew opens with a genealogy tracing Jesus from Abraham through David to Joseph, establishing Him as the royal, covenant heir. Then he tells of Jesus’ birth: Mary is found to be with child by the Holy Spirit, and an angel assures Joseph in a dream to take her as his wife, for the child “will save his people from their sins.” All this fulfills Isaiah’s prophecy of a virgin who bears a son called “Immanuel,” meaning “God with us.”
