Bible Note: DocB Notice the differences in the genalogy listed in Matthew 1 and Luke 3. Besides being reversed one Matthew show Jesus' genealogy through his legal father Joseph thus giving him legal right to the throne of David. Luke's account shows his blood line through Mary back to David. If you do a search on Genealogy in the quick search box to the right you will see this has been discussed in great detail. EdB |
