Luke1:27
27 To a virgin espoused to a man whose name was Joseph, of the house of David, and the virgins name was Mary.
In the sixth Month, that is, after Elizabeths conception, thus it is Expounded afterward, v. 36. The Angel Gabriel, the same Angel that had appeared in the Temple to Zacharias, who seemeth to have had a special Ministration, with reference to that part of Gods Will, which was predictive of the Messias, he was sent from God, (without whose command the Angels do not move) to a City of Galilee called Nazareth. There Ioseph lived, from thence he went, Chap. 2.4. The Angel came to the Virgin, who is here described by her Name Mary, and her Relation, she was espoused to one Ioseph, who is said, to be of the House of David. Matthew reduceth his Genealogy to prove him to be so.
