1 | How was Jesus of David's seed/line? | Gen 3:15 | jonnyr1 | 110959 | ||
"You seem to have an extraordinary high standard for proofs. Mine may not satisfy you, but here is my reasoning from Scripture." -I have one standard for proof. TRUTH. "Many hold that the geneology of Luke is Mary's geneology. But even if that was not the case, under Jewsish law an adopted son has the same status as a natural son and so the geneology of Joseph would applied to Jesus, just as our status as adopted children of God (see Romans) grants us status in the family of God." -Yes, many hold that Luke is Mary's geneology. This is something that people make up in an attempt to fix the problem. Mary's name doesn't even appear in the entire geneology of Luke 3! It would be pretty suspicious to say that it is her geneology when her name isn't even in it! Not to mention Romans 1:3 says that "Concerning his Son Jesus Christ our Lord, which was made of the seed of David according to the flesh". Jewish law has nothing to do with 'the seed of David according to the flesh'. Also a note, no women is held of high enough importance in the Bible to have their geneology listed. Jon |

2 | How was Jesus of David's seed/line? | Gen 3:15 | Emmaus | 110963 | ||
Jon, What do you think was the purpose of Matthew's geneology of Jesus through Joseph, his foster father, if it did not mean anything to the Jews, whom Matthew was addressing? He used that geneology to adress the question of whether or not Jesus fulfilled the Scriptures that said the Messiah would be of the line of David. Yet at the same time Matthew affirmed the virgin birth of Jesus through Mary? Would Matthew, a Jew, have used such logic, if it did not fulfill the demands of the prophets and the Law and if he thought it would not satify the questions being raised by his audience of Jews and Jewish Christians?

3 | How was Jesus of David's seed/line? | Gen 3:15 | jonnyr1 | 110966 | ||
The purpose could be that maybe we translated it wrong. That Jesus was actually the sired son of maiden Mary. If Jesus was adopted and is Joseph's son by Jewish law, then it would mean something to the Jews! | ||||||
4 | How was Jesus of David's seed/line? | Gen 3:15 | Emmaus | 110968 | ||
Jon, At this point you are not making sense. If we have a "wrong translation" and Matthew really meant that Jesus was "the sired son of maiden Mary" why would Matthew assert the virgin bith? I think I am at the end of my thread. Perhaps you will find answers to your questions elsewhere. I am inadequate to the task. Emmaus |
