1. Matthew 1:18-25 The birth of Jesus
Matthew 1:18 Now the birth of Jesus Christ was on this wise: When as his mother Mary was espoused to Joseph, before they came together, she was found with child of the Holy Ghost. [kjv]
του δε ιησου χριστου η γενεσις ουτως ην μνηστευθεισης της μητρος αυτου μαριας τω ιωσηφ πριν η συνελθειν αυτους ευρεθη εν γαστρι εχουσα εκ πνευματος αγιου [gnt]
After the genealogy in Matthew 1:1-17, Matthew details the birth of Jesus. This continues into chapter 2 with the visit of the Magi, etc.
The Christmas story in Matthew was put together at least 50 years after it happened.

14. The belt buckle
In high school, Uncle Donny gave me a German belt buckle from his service in World War II. The Nazi swastika is surrounded by the words
"Gott mit uns", or
"God with us", from the Luther Bible 400 years earlier. The verse is often read at Christmas.
Behold, a virgin shall be with child, and shall bring forth a son, and they shall call his name Emmanuel, which being interpreted is, God with us. Matthew 1:23.
German: … Emanuel … Gott mit uns.
Russian: … Еммануил, … с нами Бог.
Latin: … Emmanuhel … Nobiscum Deus
Preserve me, O God: for in thee do I put my trust. Psalms 16:1
Discuss: What does it mean to put "
In God we trust" on currency?
The Waffen SS used the motto "
Meine Ehre heißt Treue" meaning "
My honor is loyalty".

17. Matthew 1:25 First born
Matthew 1:25 And knew her not till she had brought forth her firstborn son: and he called his name JESUS. [kjv]
και ουκ εγινωσκεν αυτην εως ου ετεκεν υιον και εκαλεσεν το ονομα αυτου ιησουν [gnt]
The
TR (Textus Receptus) adds "
firstborn".
The Greek word "
Christ" means "
anointed". The English term "
christen", as in a ship or infant, is still used today in that sense.
The name "
Jesus" is from the Hebrew as
jeshuah and is the same as "
Joshua".
Who fought the battle of Jericho?
18. Matthew 1:25
KJV: And knew her not till she had brought forth her firstborn son: and he called his name JESUS.
Greek: και ουκ εγινωσκεν αυτην εως ου ετεκεν τον υιον αυτης τον πρωτοτοκον και και εκαλεσεν το ονομα αυτου ιησουν
