有一木匠与一女订了婚，但他们尚未进行交合，就发现女人已经怀孕 (1)，木匠当然知道这胎儿不是自己的， 但不想让女人公开受到羞辱，于是准备暗中解除婚约 (2)。女人说，她本是处女，有天一个 帅哥 天使来找她 (3)，告诉她将与神灵交合(4) ，天使走后(5)，她怀孕了(6)。其后，木匠说他 做了一个梦，梦中有天使告诉他，这个胎儿确实是神灵与女人交合而成 (7)。但木匠并没有立刻娶女人，而是 等婴儿 出生之后才与女人 结了婚(8)。 (1) " His mother Mary was pledged to be married to Joseph, but before they came together, she was found to be pregnant..." (Matthew 1:18) (2) " Because Joseph her husband was faithful to the law, and yet did not want to expose her to public disgrace, he had in mind to divorce her quietly." (Id. 1:19) (3) " The virgin’s name was Mary. Theangel Gabrielwent to her and said, 'Greetings, you who are highly favored!'" (Luke 1:27-8) (4) " 'The Holy Spirit will come on you, and the power of the Most High will overshadow you. '" (Luke 1:35). (5) Then the angel left her. (Luke 1:38) (6) " she was found to be pregnant". (Matthew 1:18) (7) " an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream and said, 'Joseph son of David, do not be afraid to take Mary home as your wife, because what is conceived in her is from the Holy Spirit.'" (Matthew 1:20) (8) " But he did not consummate their marriage until she gave birth to a son." (Matthew 1:25) 后注：以上的故事完全是根据圣经写成，所有事实陈述都来自圣经路加福音与马太福音。这里有一个很有意思的地方，就是在圣经中，女人的陈述是与天使直接见面，而木匠与天使是在梦中相见。
