Joseph is not mentioned in many Bible verses, but what we are told about him proves that he is one of the most godly men in the Bible. I just did a study of him. <img src="/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> JOSEPH

I very much enjoyed your article on Joseph. I've always thought he was one of the more interesting people in the Bible, and that he doesn't get enough attention. Certainly, God would have been very selective in choosing the man who would help raise His son! We know he has to have been special. It certainly wasn't an easy task to raise God's child--talk about responsibility.

Thank you Terrie, I'm glad you liked it. Just think of the first time Joseph realized Jesus had more wisdom than he. <img src="/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

I'm not sure which is worse-a child who really does know it all or having a sibling who is really as perfect as your parents think he is. If Jesus had siblings, they must have found him to be a challenge once or twice--try living up to that big brother!

Good article! <img src="/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />
That reminds me, did you know they recently found a tomb that had the inscription "James, the brother of Jesus" and they are positive it was Christ's brother. I thought that was so cool! <img src="/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />

Yes. I heard that and thought it was great when they could prove it's age. It gives me goose bumps. <img src="/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

I just read a really good book called A Case For Christ. It had some really good historical info in it!
It was written by a man who was a staunch atheist. He interviewed tons of people and one of them said that archeology has never EVER disproven any part of the bible!
Talk about goose bumbs! <img src="/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />

I highly recommend it! <img src="/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> I finished it in one day, I was so engrossed! LOL!
He interviewed some of the same people A&E uses for their informational history programs.
I really enjoyed reading about the historical stuff. I had heard some fo it before, but never really delved into it. <img src="/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />
