Surprising facts about Jesus’ father Joseph
According to the Catholic Encyclopedia, a year after Joseph's wife Salome died, Joseph responded to a call by Judea priests for a respectable man in the tribe of Judah to espouse Mary, then about 12 years old. The priests called on the heavens for a miracle to choose between the candidates and God’s choice landed on Joseph, who was 90 years old at the time.
