What does the Bible say about the birth of Jesus?

Answered in 46 sources

The Bible reveals the miraculous birth of Jesus through the angel's announcement to Mary and Joseph, emphasizing His divine nature and purpose as the Savior.

In the Gospel of Luke, specifically chapter 1, verses 31-33, the angel informs Mary that she will conceive and bear a son, named Jesus, who will reign as King forever. This announcement carries immense theological weight, as it highlights the fulfillment of God's promise of a Savior. Jesus is described as 'the Son of the Highest,' a title that emphasizes His divine nature as well as His role in fulfilling the prophecies about the coming Messiah. This birth represents both His humanity and His divinity, establishing Him as a unique figure in redemptive history, one who would save His people from their sins (Matthew 1:21).
