Since Joseph wanted to divorce Mary in Matthew 1:19 yet they were already betrothed, does that mean he did not trust her?

Matthew 1:19 NIV "Because Joseph her husband was faithful to the law, and yet[a] did not want to expose her to public disgrace, he had in mind to divorce her quietly".

    Insightful observation! The identity of the speaker in Revelation 19:5 indeed raises key interpretive questions about authority and worship in the heavenly scene. Some scholars connect the voice to an angelic mediator, while others see it as proceeding from the redeemed themselves. What are your thoughts on how this shapes our understanding of divine praise and order in Revelation?
