19: Before Joseph was informed by God concerning the specific course of action he needed to take, he was trying to come up with a good plan. Here again we see that God chose not only Mary, but also, Joseph. He was not a base fellow. He was a good man who could not countenance the birth of an illegitimate child. However, because he was good, he also loved Mary and any child she might have. He was not, as a result, willing to bring charges against her. Instead, his plan was to divorce (break off their betrothal) her quietly.
