MARRAIGE OF JESUS AND MARY

Being the heir to the Davidic line Jesus was obliged to marry by law. Jesus was also required to have at least two sons. Marraige was an important step in the progress of the heir from initiation to full community membership in the kingly line.

The rules of dynastic wedlock were a complicated matter. A lengthy period of courtship was followed by a first marraige in september. After this a physical relationship was allowed in December.

If conception was confirmed, a second marraige took place in March to legalize the wedding. During the trial period between the first marraige and the second marraige the bride was regarded in law as an almah (virgin).

The betrothal communion took place in June 6, A.D. 30.

One of the reasons there is no mention of the marraige in the new testament is that the catholic church deliberately removed it by church decree.
