Commentary on Matthew 1:25
The phrase 'knew her not till she had brought forth her firstborn' affirms both the virgin birth and implies normal marital relations afterward. The term 'firstborn' indicates Mary had other children (Matthew 13:55-56), contradicting perpetual virginity doctrines. This verse safeguards Christ's unique conception while affirming the goodness of marriage as designed by God.
