Subject: HOW COULD JESUS BE A DESCENDANT OF DAVID |
Bible Note: Joseph the Earthly Father of Jesus was working class. Butter and Honey cost alot of money in the time period of the birth of Immanuel. Also the Book of Isaiah was written hundreds of years before the book of Matthew. The verses in Isaiah as follows - 10 Moreover the LORD spake again unto Ahaz, saying, 11 Ask thee a sign of the LORD thy God; ask it either in the depth, or in the height above. 12 But Ahaz said, I will not ask, neither will I tempt the LORD. 13 And he said, Hear ye now, O house of David; Is it a small thing for you to weary men, but will ye weary my God also? 14 Therefore the Lord himself shall give you a sign; Behold, a virgin shall conceive, and bear a son, and shall call his name Immanuel. 15 Butter and honey shall he eat, that he may know to refuse the evil, and choose the good. |
