Matthew's Nativity (with Chris Green)
Alastair's Adversaria
The Story of Samuel and Joseph in Luke and Matthew
Joseph is presented to us against a certain Old Testament backcloth as it were. And Mary, another read the Magnificat, it's very hard not to think of the prayer of Hannah after the birth of Samuel. Joseph isn't really a speaking character. He's someone who appears to him, he receives visions in dreams that we'll get to in a moment.

In fact, what's important is what he doesn't do and he doesn't say anything.
