Why was all of Jerusalem troubled about the birth of Jesus?

Not all all only those in power as specified later. they too afraid of losing their status in society fearing an upturning of Herod and thus of their sheltered positions.The new king is to be born in Judea in anotehr town. The centre of the Kingdom shifting somewhere else. in reality the heart of everyman if we enthrone Jesus and recognise him as our King. But as yet he is just born and far too small to preach the truth abot the all world encompassing new Israel. Descended to meet his bride only some members of which have kept their lamps of knolwdge - OT treasured - filled.

Why did Herod try to kill Jesus?

A misunderstanding of one of the key words: kingdom. His thoughts were earth bound whereas the kingdom was the one in Heaven. He was therefore afraid of losing his power the rebellion of the Jews. the king of the Jews was coming...and some of them too listened to wrong prophets or misinterpreted the message. Attachment to eartly things? not treasured enough the Laws and words of the forefathers.

How did Joseph know it was a real angel appearing to him in his dreams, and not just , for example, indigestion?

Messages from the Lord bring peace. He must have known the OT by heart i mean all the relevant references to the future coming of the Saviour and the same treasured in Mary's heart, the one he was destined to marry they were ready to welcome the Word made flesh.Angels only needed a simple key word.
