Bible Question: what does verse 4 chapter 18 mean

Bible Answer: Dear mhigh,

What we have here is the first genealogy of the Bible that is the very beginning of the lineage of Jesus!

What you have stumbled onto is the beginning of the line of Jesus, most folks think that it begins with Abraham because God have Him the promise that He would bless His seed in all the nations. Others trace it from David who was given the promise of an heir to the eternal throne.

Here is what I found studying this;

Genesis 5:1-32; Adam to Noah.

Genesis 10:1-32; Noah to Joktan. The important person to trace here is Shem he carries the genealolgy of Jesus.

Genesis 11:10-32; Shem to Abram. The imprtant person to trace here is Abram who becomes Abraham he carries the genealogy of Jesus.

Genesis 12-49; Abraham to Isaac to Jacob to Judah.

Mathew 1; take all the names after Judah and look then up them up in the Strong's Concordance to see what book they appear in all the way up to Jesus.

Hope this helped, God Bless, Tamara
