The reason why Jesus was born during a betrothal and before a ceremony is so that people would be encouraged to have children and remember the first union between Adam and Eve where God alone was witness between them. Betrothals(engagements) granted individuals conjugal rights and any child born during such a betrothal and before a ceremony were not to be thought of as a shame but celebrated and treasured. There is grace and who can judge you? Stay together and have your celebration and ceremony with vows in due course. The wedding of Joseph and Mary is not mentioned before or after the birth and this is for good reason. This was to ensure that those who spend time dissuading people from having unions or child rearing would not succeed in their work for that more negative agenda. See 1st Timothy 4:3. Why did she cheat during her engagement with a violinist who cut off half of his bow string?
