Matthew 1:22

22 Now all of this took place so that what the Lord had spoken through the prophet would be fulfilled:

Matthew 1:22 In-Context

20 As he was thinking about this, an angel from the Lord appeared to him in a dream and said, "Joseph son of David, don't be afraid to take Mary as your wife, because the child she carries was conceived by the Holy Spirit.
21 She will give birth to a son, and you will call him Jesus, because he will save his people from their sins."
22 Now all of this took place so that what the Lord had spoken through the prophet would be fulfilled:
23 Look! A virgin will become pregnant and give birth to a son, And they will call him, Emmanuel. (Emmanuel means "God with us.")
24 When Joseph woke up, he did just as an angel from God commanded and took Mary as his wife.
