Bible Question: Luke 3 is supposed to contain the geneaology of Mary not Joseph. please help I'm trying to explain Jesus' geneaology. |
Bible Answer: Scripture ... Matt 1:1-17, Luke 3:23-38 ........ God's day to you, djsonic, and welcome to the SBF, Most think Heli is Mary's father ... the other choice would be Joesph had two fathers - Heli and Jacob. Luke didn't include the women that Matthew did. It was tradition not to include women in the geneaology, so Luke wrote it like he did ... his focus was on the virgin birth in the previous chapters.
