Bible Question: HOW COULD JESUS BE A DESCENDANT OF DAVID IF HE WAS CONCIEVED BY THE HOLY SPIRIT? HE DID NOT HAVE AN EARTHLY FATHER. |
Bible Answer: Jesus was a descendant of David because it was prophesied in the Old Testament that the Messiah would be born through David's lineage. His earthly father was Joseph. Take a look at Jesus' lineage in Matthew 1. You can follow it and see what tribe he was from , and all the notorious(or embarrasing) ancestors he had. |
