## translationNotes

* Matthew quotes a prophecy that the birth of Jesus would fulfill.

* **Behold** - Alternative translation: “Look” or “Listen” or “Pay attention to what I am about to tell you.”
* **the virgin will conceive and give birth to a son** - This verse is a direct quotation from [[:en:bible:notes:isa:07:13]].
