AMPLIFIED 2015 | Matthew 1:6 Jesse was the father of David the king. David was the father of Solomon by Bathsheba who had been the wife of Uriah. [Ruth 4:18-22; 1 Chr 2:13-15] |
Subject: Uriah the Hittite in Christ's lineage? |
Bible Note: Right you are and I'm not sure how I made that mistake. But the fact remains David and Bathsheba's affair did create a child that died and was contributed to David not Uriah or David as Uriah's stand in. Solomon was born of David and Bathsheba after they were married but the marriage was tainted by the adultery they committed. Uriah was one of David's chosen men and from all accounts honorable. The mention of him was as I stated that while Davod's sin could be forgiven and he could take his place in the lineage of Jesus there were still consequences and he would always carry the taint of adultery as would Bathsheba. Bathsheba is mentioned, reread Matt 1:6 her name is there. Fact David fathered Solomon so however you want to look at it Jesus came from the kingly line of David. Also Jesus came from the bloodline of David see lineage in Luke 3. David through Nathan through Mary. So Jesus has both title and blood of David, just as God said he would. |
