Subject: pure isrealite |
Bible Note: this post is for brother Jim I believe you said that Jesus ancestry was pure Isrealite. here in Matthew chapter 1, aside from Rahab, we see Ruth the Moabites and Bathsheba the wife of Uriah the Hittite, even though this is the lineage of Joeseph,this is also Jesus connection to the thrown of David. Though it can be argued that Mary too was of the house David, in the big picture what is the significance? are we not all Abrahams seed Acts 17:26 This is probably why Paul tells us in 1st Timothy 1:4 not to give heed to endless genealogies, which minister questions, rather than Godly edifying. |
