Subject: Why does Jesus have 2 genealogies? |
Bible Note: Scripture ... Jer 22:30, Mat 1:2-17, Luk 3:23-37 ... ateo, Do you have two genealogies? I know I do, one is from my father and the other from my mother. God cursed Jeconiah (also called Coniah), stating that no descendant of his would ever sit on the throne of David (Jer 22:30). Jesus by Joseph recieved the legal rights of Joseph to Jesus as a son, not the biological curse ... so there is a need for two genealogies Matthew gives royal genealogy of Jesus as King. A king who must have one a genealogy. Kings must trace their descent, to claim their right to rule, so begins with Abraham, and comes down to Jesus. In Matthew, after David, we have his son Solomon. the royal/ legal succession. Luke gives the human genealogy of Jesus as Man. A man needs a genealogy. Man must trace his ascent to some particular ancestor, starts from Jesus, and goes up to Adam and God. In Luke, after David, we have the natural and lineal line through Nathan, Solomon's elder brother. Searcher |
