The Virgin Birth Is a Solution of God Becomes Human

Matthew is putting forward Jesus of Nazareth as the one in whom the only hope for solution and rescue and salvation from this mess that we have got ourselves into. It's a solution of God becoming human, utterly a solution from outside of ourselves to be and do as the kind of human that you and I are incapable of doing. But at the same time, it's a solution that's totally inside of the human problem because it's actually in the form of a human itself. The divine and the human come together to save and to rescue. Who's going to save, Yahweh or this man Yahweh saves? And the answer is yes.
