115664
Joseph of Arimathea, according to the Gospels, was the man who donated his own prepared tomb for the burial of Jesus after his crucifixion. A native of Arimathea, he was apparently a man of wealth, and a member of the Sanhedrin. \nJoseph was an "honourable counsellor, who waited for the kingdom of God" (Mark, 15:43). As soon as he heard the news of Jesus' death, he went in boldly unto Pilate, and craved the body of Jesus.\n\n\nhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joseph_of_Arimathea

Death was not as easily or accurately determined in those days.  A person might be cut down from the cross while still alive.  If Joseph knew that Jesus would come back from the dead because he had not altogether died, he kept his secret through the centuries.  His version of events might then have something of the nature of a cover-up.

His real name was Yeshua ben Yosef (Jesus/ Joshua son of Joseph) Yeshua was a quite common name at that time and is the name of other biblical characters but translates differently each time\n\nOK Joe... Jesus' name was also translated Joshua, like the spy/ leader of the Israelites and another name but I confuse which is a translation of Yehudah and which is Yeshua-- I do know Yehudah was Judah and James but I don't remember what Jude and Judas were

Well first of all He wasn't born under the curse of Adam since Joseph didn't have relations with Marry.  Chirst also made the decision not to sin.

Rasta, or the Rastafari movement, is a religious movement that accepts Haile Selassie I, the former emperor of Ethiopia, as King of Kings, Lord of Lords and the Lion of Judah as Jah (the Rastafari name for God, from a shortened form of Jehovah found in Psalms 68:4 in the King James Version of the Bible), and part of the Holy Trinity. The name Rastafari comes from Ras Täfäri, the pre-coronation name of Haile Selassie I. The movement emerged in Jamaica among working-class and peasant black people in the early 1930s, arising from an interpretation of Biblical prophecy, black social and political aspirations, and the teachings of their prophet, Jamaican black publicist and organiser Marcus Garvey, whose political and cultural vision helped inspire a new world view. The movement is sometimes called "Rastafarianism"; however, this is considered improper and offensive by Rastas.

Mary tricked Joseph into believing that. She was knocked up by a roman soldier or by an alien visitor?

In actual sense there is no exact record that Joseph DIED!\nThat has to be cleared first... No actual fact that says that he died or even was around when Jesus was older...\nOK lets do the math. Tradition of the church says that Jesus was born to a young maiden. So this would refer to a girl who is very young in fact.. which explains why many artists draw Mary as a young GIRL... i suppose in her early 15 at lest... and she was engaged with a man(again traditionally a widower) maybe around 30 or 40 or 50...no one knows! But Joseph was also silent in the gospels!\nJoseph could have died of natural causes... (old age)\nor something else... but this is for sure... he died because in the gospel of John, Jesus gives his mother to John to take care of.. would she go if she is already staying with a husband?!?!\nmakes no sense..\nJoseph probably died just before Jesus begun his public ministry. This silent carpenter died not that silent because by living and following the instruction of God, he saved both the lives of Jesus and Mary from King Herod... He followed a dream... He lived a godly life..

My absolute favorite story in Genesis is the story of Joseph, where his brothers sell him into slavery and he ends up becoming the top person in Egypt right underneath Pharaoh.  The best part of the story is when his brothers come to Egypt to get food for their family, and Joseph ends up telling them who he is and that he forgives them of everything that they did to him.  It takes a strong man of God to do something like that.  I admire him for that.

The Messiah! The one who will come again. The one who was born out of virgin mary without sin! The one who is with God now and alive,. The one that asscended to the heavens! The one who performed many miracles by the help of God. We have very high respect and love Jesus (PBUH) very much. We learn from his teachings and also from his mother Mary (Mariam), who was a model of purity and devotion to God all mighty.

His father, Joseph, was a carpenter and most men of that day stayed in same profession as their fathers. So yes, by birth he was a carpenter, the Bible never mentions anything about  Him doing any actual carpentry work though.
