God sovereignly chose Joseph to be the earthly father of His Son, Jesus Christ. He predicted in the Old Testament that the Messiah would come from the lineage of David. (Isaiah 11:1, Jeremiah 23:5-6) Both Matthew and Luke provide genealogies of Jesus that confirm Jesus was a descendent of David—therefore, a legitimate Messiah. (2 Samuel 7:12–13)

The prophets in the Old Testament described the awaited Messiah’s birth in detail. They foretold the Jesus would come from the line of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob (Genesis 12:3; 17:19; Numbers 24:17), and the tribe of Judah (Genesis 49:10) ) to a virgin who would call Him Immanuel (Isaiah 7:14).

And the angel Gabriel confirmed God’s Sovereign choice to Mary, you will become pregnant with a baby boy, and you are to name him Jesus. He will be great and will be known as the Son of the Most High; and the Lord God will give Him the throne of his ancestor David. He will reign as King of Israel
