I think your question was answered by amor65 in his answer to the question HOW COULD JESUS BE A DESCENDANT OF DAVID? I have pasted his answer for you...Because in the Jewish genealogy, the "mother side" is used to trace back the validity of citizenship and thus if a person is considered a true Jew or not. Since Mary was a true descendant of David, her son, Jesus as well as his brothers and sisters were true descendants of David | ||||||

Dear Judah, The genealogy of Jesus is found in Matthew concerning Joseph's side, though he was not technically Jesus' father; but it was also listed from Mary's side beginning in Luke 3:23. I don't quite understand why, but Jewish heredity is validated from the mother's side, even to this day by tradition. In any case both Mary and Joseph were descendants of David. So Jesus, in the flesh, was truly a descendant in David's line. I hope this is of some help to you. Itiswritten |
