Malachi 4 -Matthew 2 

This evening, I am struck by Joseph's faith. He has a bizarre dream and acts on it. In the dream God tells Joseph that Mary is pregnant by God himself. Would most of us wake up shaking our heads declaring that's impossible??

The wise men, too, respond to a dream. I always wonder who these wise men were. I recently read that they may have been Chaldeans as the Chaldeans would have been familiar with Israelite prophecy from when Israel was captive in Babylon. 

Joseph, yet again, is obedient to a dream and still another time.
