  4. 1:16 And Jacob begat Joseph the husband of Mary, of whom was born Jesus, who is called Christ.

  25. 2:17 Then was fulfilled that which was spoken by Jeremy the prophet, saying,
  26. 2:19 But when Herod was dead, behold, an angel of the Lord appeareth in a dream to Joseph in Egypt,
  27. 2:20 Saying, Arise, and take the young child and his mother, and go into the land of Israel: for they are dead which sought the young child's life.
