As a Muslim, greetings to all Christians! Peace be with all of us!
As a Native American, same to you!
As a Christian, same to you.
Yes we all are brothers and sisters.. from our parents adam and eve.. and we all believe in the god almighty
It's fascinating to know the connection between the Muslims and Christians in the family tree. I've watched the ones in the Muslim too before this and its very educational to hear. Peace be with you too!
Thank you all for your good wishes!
"This John was definitely different from the John who wrote the Gospel of John."
I like how you just said that and didn't elaborate on how it'd be kinda hard to write a Gospel with your head removed from your body.
You maybe wrong you truly do not actually know positively you just believe what you think is correct for you other people may see and believe it differently so no one is actually wrong because it's only believe in how you see it within your Faith man wrote the bible not god nor Jesus that did write a single letter in the bible
@@robertgenson1846 So... You're saying John The Baptist wrote the Gospel of John? Even though. He died before most of the events take place? Because that's what my comment was about.
@@BonJoviBeatlesLedZep no that's not what I'm saying so don't you put words in my mouth or speak for me it's ok for you to believe what ever you want but to say you positively know everything exactly the way it is what you are saying is totally and completely correct no one knows that but God who knows all
@@robertgenson1846 But. I was talking about John The Baptist. So it doesn't make sense for you to reply to that with something completely unrelated.
@@BonJoviBeatlesLedZep it related you believe what you believe but you factually do not know it all you may believe you do but you are read a story that man wrote that no human completely understands only god knows all exactly correct all humans do not know this and never will is what I'm conveying to you
As a Christian, I really appreciate how respectifully and insightfully you explained this. And I do agree with your final comment as our understanding of history is very different from the gospel authors' and people of antiquity. I learned a lot. Thanks so much!
Fun fact: the style in which the gospels were written is the exact same as other biographies of the time (i.e. focusing on certain parts of an individuals life and glossing over others, rather than giving equal parts to every section of that persons life).
@@firecat3613 I'm not a Christian but I thought his comment was thoughtful and respectful. Don't be an @$$.
An ACTUAL good Christian here.
@@firecat3613 This is why theists don’t listen to atheists man. Why are you antagonizing this person who has done nothing but be respectful and open minded?
@@coltonbates629 completely agree. Atheists and theists need to be less condescending to each other. Atheists aren’t witches and Christians aren’t babbling fools... both with exceptions of course
Mary Magdalene was from Magdala in Galilee while Mary, the sister of Lazarus and Martha was from Bethany closer to Jerusalem. They were two different persons and their hometowns were very far apart from each other, one was from the northern part of Israel and the other was from from the West Bank in the south.
wasn't Magdala on the west side of the sea of Galilee? They found some archeological remains of that city. Pretty cool looking! Check it out!
“How many Marys can be found in the New Testament?”
John, Matthew, Mark, and Luke: “yes”
They be like hold my beer *takes out memo*
John was like "dudes, you Senoptic guys named everyone but Jeebus's mom?! she was by my side, men!"
And Merry Christmas!
Well in fact: 0 Marys
I believe the correct hebrew name was Miriam or Marian
All very non eastern names dont you think. In the middle of the desert with anglo european names. Hilarious.
Xui ping from china is still xui ping in english. We dont translate peoples names.
Greatly appreciated your preface, Matt. You've always been a fair judge of the balance between religion and History, and your videos are always enjoyable. Happy Holidays to you and yours!
Hmm. Sailing in 2 boats and landing nowhere.
@Anthuvan Anbu Your ignorance and wishful thinking betray you.
yes but plz repent mr useful chart u are lost and deceived plz repent
He did a horrible job , in Mathew 13 55 there is no mention of SISTERS ( read the Bible yourself to see the original) ALSO brothers doesn’t mean exclusively Siblings neither in Hebrew , Greek or Arabic it mean 90% of times friends, cousins , fellow ....he is either misleading In purpose or just ignorant ...
I think that a Jew explaining Jesus' family tree on regardless of their beliefs is beautiful. If only everyone (Jewish, Christian or any other religion) had the same respect that you do. Happy holidays Matt!
@SURREY CROSSING what does this have to do with anything
Bruh I dont know you but we have the same name :D
@SURREY CROSSING oh right, my bad
@darth piett false
Jesus was Jewish, of course ;)
I cannot imagine how diligent and persevering you are to complete this genealogy
Well said.
You can just read the multiple accounts of Jesus' lineages in the Bible.
@@joebhall5439 I don’t read the Bible, because It is almost all a Fairy tale taken, from earlier events which is a Combination of Legend & truth. You know the most important story in the Bible, is the story of the Jew’s being held as slaves
, Has been Debunked by Archaeology. Go back to my original account it is not just the Jew’s but Catholic New Testament, after Martin Luther & Henry the Vlll things changed again!

@@ahmedsamy8406Bro he didnt make them jesus siblings. Did you even watch the video?
Things must've been really confusing in the Joachim (Imram) household.
"Who broke this jar? Was it you, Mary?"
"No, it was Mary."
Mary: "It couldn't have been me, father. I was born without original sin."
It should be noted that, while having two or three children with the same name would have been quite normal in a Greco-Roman household, it was very uncommon in Jewish households. You can easily have two Agrippinas in the same family because the Roman parents would have called the elder Agrippina and the younger Agrippinilla. The same can't be done with Jewish children.
no the another mary lol
@@andrewsuryali8540 it was even worse then that in the Roman tradition; Where men had at least prenomen as Marcus, Gaius of Sextus, the woman did not even had prenomen of their own, all daughters were named as being daughters of such and such gens.
A professor Latin once told the practise of name children among the Roman farmer pretty basic: After the first three sons they just started counting, Sextus just means the 6th one.
Ceasar belonged to the gens Julia so his daughter was called (a) Julia, he had a few aunts on his fathers side also called Julia. When there were three daughters in a household of the Julian family they would be Julia Major, Julia Minor and Julia Tertia.
The names of the Agrippina was actual Vipsania as they came from Marcus Vipsanius Agrippa. Agrippa was a nickname as Ceasar actually was too.
@@kamion53 Yes to all that, but the point I was trying to make is that whoever in the ancient proto-Orthodox movement had come up with the idea of multiple Marys in the Joachim household must have come from a Greco-Roman background where this was common and not from a Jewish one where it would have been culturally strange.
Even in Swazi culture, we don't have cousins. My paternal uncle's children are my brothers and sisters and my maternal aunt's children are my brothers and sisters also.
Agreed that they can be your brothers and sisters but do you marry them like what the hebrews did.
Point of correction. Cousins are found in the children of the paternal aunt and maternal uncle.
They are not your brothers and sisters because they have a foreign blood in them which make 50% of their genetics so basically they are like your half sister /brother.
@@luckygirl1111 yes but half a glass of water is still half a glass of water.
@@Dharm47 but it's not a full glass of water there's air in it
Even if you don't see the air, and refuse to count it, in physics it's part of the matter, weather you like it or not..
There are people who see the empty side of the glass and there are people who see the full side of the glass so weather your cousins are your brothers/sisters or not is just a matter of perspective.
Pointing out that James the great is called Santiago in Spanish probably helps connect some dots
The fact that Santiago, Jaime, Jacobo and Diego are the same name amazes me.
James, Jaime, Thiago, Tiago, Santiago, and Diego are all synomyous names.
Oh thanks for that fact, amazing. I don't see the resemblence. Maybe that's his saint name?
@@ikad5229 I always assumed "Jaime" was synonymous for "James". I just learned something today. Thanks.
@@BillGreenAZ All those names evolved from the same one. In Spain, we have Santiago, which is San (Saint) Tiago. If I remember correctly, Tiago, Yago and Diego derive from a form of Jacob. Jaime is a variation of Jacob too. It's weird, but I guess that's how ethimology works.
Your diligence and scholarship is greatly appreciated. I agree with the idea that each writer of the four Gospels had a particular initial audience in mind, and therefore each have a cohesive concept of contents. (I also believe there is Divine influence to their writings, also.) Thank you.
Dominus Vobiscum my friend
Genealogy on his fathers side is rather short: “god”.
Cool, you did it. Atheism destroyed
Lol
Anyone who has a genealogy cannot be a God as the the creator is beyond time and does not resemble his creation and He says Be and they are created.
I think he means Joseph
Ever heard of Pantera?
I just wanted to come here to say thank you. This was a very non-bias video and creates interest in the Bible and its lineage. Thank you for your work and may God bless you in all areas of your life and continue to make some amazing videos!
It is biased, as the bible states that john the baptist was Jesus' cousin.
"Non biased"? How is it non biased? For a start, the narrator is not even a Christian.
@@frenchtoast2319
True it is biased but mary and elizabeth were cousins, the brother part maybe due to brothers in Abraham? Like we call ourselves brothers in Christ.
@@mikem2809 yeah i misspoke. Thanks for clarifying.

No worries.
I found your channel when looking up the genealogy of Queen Elizabeth II, whom passed 3 days ago. Now learning much from this chart on Jesus. Your voice and narration are clear and concise. Thank you for your thorough, hard work putting these (confusing for me) lineage trees together. Well done. I have subscribe to your site.

This is great! My only criticism is that Mary Magdalene wasn’t the Mary that was the sister of Lazarus and Martha. I know there’s so many Marys that it’s hard to keep track of them, but amazing work anyway!!
Mary Magdalene was from Magdala. Mary of Mary and Martha was from Bethany.
Agreed
You are right. I was going to say the same thing. There are a lot of Marys in the New Testament.

Mary or Mara was a very popular name, as was Jesus.
Greek-Orthodox here. I knew, of course, about the three sets of fourteen generations in Matthew (there is even a Greek expression along those lines), but I had never noticed that Luke had 77 generations, which, as you pointed out, has its own numerological significance. Thank you!
7777th here and that's that Wallace or Wallis same peoples ace of sorts
Yes, correct, there is a reason that Luke spends what is a seemingly inordinate amount of time detailing the Line Of Jesus. It is so that we may come to believe this was pre-ordained by God, not some happenstance occurrence in northern Judea. That we may come to understand the wonderful history of our Salvation. 🙏

Pretty sure he says that the "brothers" isn't necessarily literal around 4:20. Not to mention that he's made mistakes before, people point it out, and he fixes it or acknowledges it. Given that behavior, I highly doubt he's deliberately deceiving people. I think he's doing a pretty decent job, or as decent a job as most people could do.
how can that be? archaeology strongly helps to prove religion as a construct of us mere mortals
how does it make you feel to see the bones of animals that lived millions of years ago? that aren't mentioned in your bible?
genuine questions, no hate intended
@@mowvu5380 I mean, it might not mean much coming from me, someone who isn't religious, but it doesn't seem hard to believe in one thing and see that there's plenty of people in the past who believed in various different things. Similarly, I believe in modern-day science to explain the world around me while accepting that it's flawed and incomplete in many ways, and I don't find it hard to reconcile this with the fact that many people of the past to had their own forms of science that I disagree with. For example, the Greeks have the belief that all things in the world are made of classical elements: earth, water, air, fire, and aether. This was their form of science. I don't agree with their science or the science of many other older civilizations, but the fact that many other civilizations having a form of science as a construct to explain the world around them doesn't make me believe modern science less.
Heck, an average religious person would probably agree that not everything they believe in is correct, yet it's not strange to hold strong to your current beliefs. For example, you probably find it unlikely for ALL of what you think is true to be true (because you believe countless things to be true, so it's likely at least some of them will be wrong), yet you'll still believe each of your individual beliefs to be true, like that the Earth is round or that the world is made of atoms, because that's what you grew up learning and understanding while finding the most intuitively reasonable. And if you found proof that one of your beliefs is incorrect (say a scientific study you believed in turned out to simply be wrong), would that make you no longer believe in all your other beliefs? No, you'd likely find some explanation/rationalization as to why you were wrong (perhaps that specific scientist or experiment was bad, or some systemic issue causes bad studies like these to arise), then change that one belief (and perhaps closely related beliefs and similarly derived beliefs), then keep your remaining ones untouched. Human beings are varied/diverse creatures, so it's not strange for us to believe wildly different things such that should a specific incorrect belief prove to be fatal (e.g. berries that look like this are safe to eat), not everyone dies for believing in the same thing.
@@mowvu5380 What? That doesn’t make any sense to me. Archeology has done nothing but back up and confirm the Bible. Many biblical people and places have been found through archeology. Archeologists even refer to the Bible when they are excavating any area the Bible refers to. As for the bones of animals that lived millions of years ago, we just use our best guess as to their age with carbon dating but while it’s a tool used to determine age it’s not the only tool and it’s far from being perfect and at times wildly inaccurate. We’ve found dinosaur bones with soft tissue which according to science lasts much less than 1M years. We’ve carbon dated dinosaur bones to only a few thousand years old. There have been recent known living animals that passed away and we carbon dated them and got crazy results like 30,000 years old. It’s just science using their best guess and science is always changing. I would put all my eggs into that one basket just because a rock with uranium decay dates to 14.6 Billion years.
Everything you say sounds like everything I have read. This topic is very interesting to me. And you put all the information from the Bible together so well that this is the first time I have seen such a thorough and clear presentation. Thank you!!! I really liked this.

This has long been one of my favorite channels, but this video elevates my view even further. This is so masterfully done, even from a historical perspective alone, but from a religious viewpoint, it is incredibly respectful for having been made by a non-Christian-and I was particularly excited to hear you included us Eastern Orthodox! Here in the West we usually get left out, or just lumped in with the Roman Catholics, LOL.
One additional point I would add to your later discussion about the numerology of the genealogies is that 14 is the gematria/numerological value of David (DVD). Since St. Matthew was writing to a primarily Jewish audience, his Gospel focuses on how Christ is the fulfillment of the Jewish Messianic prophecies, a king of the line of Judah (Gen. 49:10) and of the line of David (2 Sam. 7:12-13). Arranging his genealogy this way is just another reference to the Scriptures the Jews of his time would have known well.
Wonderful video, as always! Very insightful, thank you!
As a Westerner who is also Roman Catholic, I'm sorry you get the short end of the stick and that you got lumped in with us.
On a side note, I agree, it is nice to hear about our religious backings and the stories of our God from a non-believer. Its a breath of fresh air to hear such a concice discussion without it being used as a weapon for or against the belief.
Belief in Bible not religion!!! Because Bible is the words of God whereas religion is a man made!!!! Religion branches divide us!!! God did not made roman catholic, protestant, and so on, it was made by human!!!
@@greatvidznaga3183 the Bible is a religious text compiled and confirmed by the Orthodox/Catholic Church (pre-schism). It is a liturgical text that is situated within Holy Tradition, not opposed to it. There is no such thing as “just following the Bible” in Christianity; this is not a historical position of Christianity, is not found in Holy Scripture, and in practice, fails, because each person injects their own biases into what Holy Scripture says. You cannot “follow the Bible” apart from the traditions of the Church. May the Lord bless you and keep you, my friend, and lead you on the path of truth 🙏🏻☦️
We should belief what the Bible says and keep faith on it because Bible is the true words of God e.g in catholic Mother Marry is given more important but Bible did not mention to give more important to mother Marry..... That was my real view point my dear friend!!!! God bless you too
@@greatvidznaga3183 I see where you're coming from, and I used to feel the same as you, but the more I read Scripture and understand the historical context of Scripture, the more it becomes clear that the Bible *does* give Mary preeminence (not to elevate her to equality with God, which neither Orthodox nor Roman Catholics do). She rightly deserves this honor because she is the Mother of God.
I think you'd agree that Jesus is King, so I won't touch on that, but we must then consider who is Queen. Well, that's Mary, of course! In the Old Testament, the Queen of Israel was not the king's wife, but his mother. Note how Michal, David's first wife, is never described as queen, nor Abigail, a later wife. His only wife to receive the title of Queen is Bathsheba, the mother of King Solomon. In 1 Kings 1:15-31, we see Bathsheba intercede on Solomon's behalf to obtain the throne; in the following chapter, Solomon's half-brother Adonijah appeals to Bathsheba to intercede to the king for him, and in 2:17 he says to her, "Please speak to King Solomon, for he will not refuse you." In verse 20, Solomon says, "Ask it, my mother, for I will not refuse you." And in verse 19, we see she has a throne at his right hand. The gebirah, the Hebrew queen-mother, is the right hand of the king and is the chief intercessor to him. Jesus was incarnate in a Jewish context, and He knew this. He is the fulfillment of the Old Testament. Thus, we can safely conclude that Mary is the Queen Mother of our Lord and King Jesus Christ, and in turn, the chief intercessor to Him for us. (This doesn't mean we can't approach Him directly! We certainly can :) But what king refuses His mother?)
In Luke 1:28, the Archangel Gabriel appears to Mary and calls her "highly favored" and "blessed among women." This is certainly high praise from an angel! Her older cousin Elizabeth echoes this praise in verse 42; in Jewish culture, it was custom for the younger to honor the elder, NOT the other way around, so clearly Elizabeth recognizes an elevation of her young cousin Mary. In her song of praise, Mary says, "He has put down the mighty from their thrones and exalted the lowly," referring to herself. The Greek "exalt" is hypsoō, which carries royal connotations. Further, in verse 35, Gabriel says, "the power of the Highest will overshadow you"; the Greek used here is an inflection of episkiazō, which is the same word used to describe the overshadowing of the Holy Spirit on the Ark of the Covenant in Exodus 40:35 (Greek Septuagint). It is clear from this chapter alone that Mary is deserving of praise! (NOT worship, which is reserved for God alone!)
Christians have given the Virgin Mary, the Theotokos (Greek for God-bearer), honor since the very founding of the Church! Her position of honor is 100% biblical. I hope this is helpful!! Please let me know if you have any more questions! :)
I am a Christian, and I love how respectful you were in this video! I took no offense because you are simply so kind and thoughtful to the religion. Thank you!
You also would appreciate the videos we have on the topic!

@@Trialbyfire9 what is it then?
Joseph's disappearance is a major plot hole imo, really took me out of left field as a kid.
Sad to see the later seasons neglect iconic side characters 😔
yeah bro they killed him off screen, no flash back or anything, just said he died in his families arms and that was that, pretty disappointing ending to my favorite character
But remember he did a spin off does no one remember the technicolour dream coat like
I kinda feel like he was removed because he pokes holes in that "Mary Forever Virgin" narrative. How many husbands you know would be okay with never consummating their marriage? Second, consider who edited the Bible. Third, consider again that these are the same people who notoriously anti-anything that isn't for procreation. Then draw your own conclusions.
He went to the store for cigarettes and never came back
He was the most tragic figure from this story, I mean to a lot of christians Mary remained a virgin for all of her life, I'm very sorry for him, the authors were very cruel to him.
I myself am not a Christian and I didn’t grow up with Christian beliefs but I respect Christianity and am thinking about Converting so I can get myself into heaven
Are you now Christian
Lol
Are you any other religion? I was raised from pre-school until I was 17 YO. I then was baptized as a Missouri Lutheran Synod. ( the strict ones) I then went to various Baptist, and Pentecostal churches. I firmly believe God will bless Israel.
I am 70 YO now. I believe in Christ as my Savior. That is what I was taught. I don't believe "THE ONLY WAY TO GO TO HRAVEN IS TO BELIEVE IN CHRIST ONLY."
In My Humble opinion, Since we know God loves us all, he had to send different "prophets/Teachers to reach all his children. SO he sent "Buddha" for that part of the world. He sent Mohammad for that area of the country. And the Hindu God's for India and that area. The Native Americans believe in the Creator. The father of everything. (Many are Catholic , with NA traditions worked in.)
Many religions have the same creation stories. The same standards to live by. It is "Evil" teachers of any religion who pevert their OWN holy readings. This only makes sense to me. There are good holy people of all religions. So, I think there will be all different religions and people going to "Heaven."
If you have "No church affliation, the church ID reccomend ID a group called "Friends." Sometimes they are called 2X2's. They might be hard to find as they don't believe in spending money on "Churches." The preachers go from area to area preaching to the group in that area. Many are single, so they stay in family homes. No pressure to give a tithe or anything...They believe you will listen to the spirit when he tells you to donate.
Bless you!
Good idea
You should not believe in Jesus to get to Heaven. You should believe it because it’s true, Jesus loves y’all and he died for you
Imagine having three daughters and naming them all Mary. Doesn't make much sense unless they adopted Roman naming convention.
They were the George Foreman of their time.
You could go the Catholic route & always use them with their different middle name; Mary Margaret, Mary Kate, Mary Francis, Mary Mary...
Larry, Daryl, and Daryl?
So say this to my family
Karl Marx gave his daughters all the same name
As very practicating catholic I say that you have done an excellent work and a good presentation.
As a practicing Catholic, i listen carefully and i astonished from your own tongue that some protestant believe Mary remained Virgin until ro the rest of her life. Well, i am corectioning and suggesting, the protestanat never and doesnot believe that after Mother Mary given a birth of Jesus they simply believe Jesus has a brother and in fact they making such blasphemy that is more Virgin. That why in earlier of my age there are argumentation or debate between the Catholic faithful and Prostestant insisting Mother Mary is no more Virgin. Or may be now thet realized that Mother Mary is truly only now. We Catholic and Orthrodox Church believe is a pure in state of Virgin that's why we have dogmatic and Cathecism believing still Virgin. Thank you for explaining some good narrative about genealogy
@El Dimos Karam Mumbo jumbo is good brainwashing. Helps get those choirboys into your bed, freak.
Whether anybody believes Jesus Christ is the son of God is irrelevant God Almighty cannot lie it's not his character he sent angels to proclaim his son was coming to the earth and it's written in all the scriptures check it out yourself from the beginning to the end Jesus Christ is coming back and every eye we'll see him and every knee will bend and say Jesus Christ is the Lord that's written in the scriptures too

After all, in oral traditions, the idea is usually in getting across a narrative and its themes, more than step by step facts
Also mnemonics
Amen to that ✨
No. There are step by step instructions on how to treat ALL, not just "some" who "might agree with you." "Narrative" is close-mindedness. It allows for human "grays" while GOD IS black & white. YOUR REASONS for ANY action won't matter. The intent of every present moment flows into each one after affecting more than yourself. Even when you think you are alone & no one sees. A murderer affects more than themselves & their victim, correct? A thief passes the cost on to everyone else. A liar spreads disharmony & harm to those who hear & to those their lie is about. An apathetic person is the worst. Seeing harm to another & not offering help is apathy. The ONLY REAL instructions: treat OTHERS as they WANT to be treated. Open your home to someone who NEEDS a hand up, BUT they MUST want to rise from their position & HELP THEMSELVES to where you are showing them. Feed someone outside a store or buy them a bottle of water. Kindness. Intent. Living as Jesus did. No matter HIS intent, how much LOVE did it take to THINK His GOD had abandoned Him & STAYED UPON THE CROSS for ALL SIN, in His belief? Would YOU do that? I would take it from Him IF I could. See more than what others teach you. Even me. THINK for yourself.
There are oral traditions which are very precise about rather long geneologies.
@@Eugensson from what I understand this idea has fallen out of favour in scholarship, there can be fairly accurate oral traditions but I've not heard one regarding genealogy.
I and the father are One..no one's comes to the father except through me..Thank LORD GOD Jesus Christ Amen!!!
Yup...under the blood
Wrong. John 17:21 that they may ALL BE ONE, just as you, Father, are in me, and I in you, that they also may be in us, so that the world may believe that you have sent me.
So you have 14 PEOPLE INTO 1. You have 14 gods? Jesus is not God, he’s a servant of God.
@@sharkiealami7817 John 10:30 i and the Father are One Jesus Christ the LORD GOD and the living God Amen
I find it interesting that Jesus interposes Himself between us and the Father. Seems presumptuous. Strange, too if "I and the Father are one."
Matthew's genealogy traces the Kingly line of Jesus, while Luke traces Jesus' Priestly heritage apparent in the split of David's line. (Solomon = King, Nathan = Priest) As the prophets of old foretold, the Messiah is both a King and a Priest, one who rules and sanctifies, one who judges and saves, and one who is worthy of praise but at the same time offers the sacrifice. Thank you for this @UsefulCharts.
Nathan the son of David was not a priest tho? priests could only come from the tribe of Levi and Nathan was from the tribe of Judah

Whoa, a historian using the Bible as a reference, one who also claims not to be a follower of Christ, never thought I’d see the day, I appreciate your unbiased view, I believe the Holy Spirit helped these men write these books, they came together and agreed on the scriptures they used, but that’s putting faith into it, just enjoyed this video greatly
I just finished reading the Bible for the first time in chronological order. I highly recommend it to be read this way. It’s apparent that details mattered very much to the Jews and those who wrote the Bible. Luke, a Greek physician, was exceptionally detailed oriented. In Hebrew (apparently) each name in the genealogy of Christ has a meaning and when read in order tells the story of Christ’s coming and the Good News. Just like the numbers, it all has a deeper meaning
very interesting thanks for sharing
you said you read the bible in chronological order... well who was born on 25 of December
Jews didn't even exist when the Torah and prophets were written, so what would detail supposedly mattering to them have to do with anything related to the bible?
The bible records the words of ISRAELITE prophets, and was written by ISRAELITE scribes.
"Who are Israelites;
To whom pertaineth the adoption,
And the glory,
And the covenants,
And the giving of the law,
And the service of God,
And the promises;
Whose are the fathers,
And of whom as concerning the flesh Christ came, who is over all, God blessed for ever. Amen." Rom 9:4-5
"Strictly speaking, it is incorrect to call an ancient Israelite a Jew, or to call a contemporary Jew an Israelite or Hebrew." -The Jewish Almanac, 1980, p.3
There were Israelites in the Kingdom of Judaea, and Israelites of the Kingdom of Israel. Those in Judaea were called JUDAEANS, not "Jews" as the Jewish Almanac attests.
It's difficult to believe that supposedly "Spirit Filled Christians" could be so easily duped with such a simple Bait & Switch ploy. (Replacing Judaeans with Jews)

This was an excellent take on Jesus's family tree, coming from a Christian. I never bothered to keep track of the ancestral lines when I read the Bible because I was too lazy to keep up with them all, so it was a relief to have you organise it neatly for us all. Also, the conflicting genealogies in Matthew and Luke have been mind-boggling me ever since I read the Bible in one take, but kudos to you for your interesting, yet respectful approach to that issue.
the stupid bible 😅😂😂 even an idiot will understand after this video the contradiction in the 2 books
@@salah777 The quran is 100% full of contradictions….
Yes, the Qur’an is actually incomplete as many of it need to be found or understood from the scriptures of other religions or the Bible. But as a Muslim, we must believe in all scriptures or biblical examples, such as the Torah, the Bible, and the Psalms. But I understand the Torah and the Bible. I would just be confused with the Psalms. Yes, the Quran contradicts the Bible because it never mentions about Jesus Christ, only the Prophet Isa and the false Messiah, and Judas in this video. Also, Prophet Isa and Jesus Christ are different people, just like Judas, they are different people, as in this academy essay. The Qur'an never mentions which Maryam is.
@@patrickaccioly4398 It's dependent on what translation they're using and the preacher of it. Yes, because Al-Quran also mentioned the Trinity in Christianity, but this academic writing makes me understand better.
It's always Non Africans or Europeans who have colonized Africa that feels the need to speak on the history of Africa, & more importantly Jesus. Results of this are evident when thinking of how they, by law only, separated Egypt from the rest of the continent of Africa. Lol.

@Crispy Cream If I use my wealth to harm others it is fine because God favors me because of my wealth, the people I am harming are not rich and not favored by God, so it is OK. Puritanism, Calvinism or Prosperity Gospel it is all one lie, and the exact opposite of Christianity.
Thank you for the video. I am a devout born again Christian and I am reading and meditating on the the word of God, the Bible. Jesus is the Son of God undoubtedly! Amen 🙏 🙏 🙏
it is Jesus the word of God, not the Bible. the Bible is a recollection of memories of when Jesus was alive and letters of his apostles to convince people to convert. Look for Jesus only and the Holy Spirit. it is not the Bible the word of God but Jesus.
I think Luke included all those names from Jesus to Abraham through mumble rap, and the scribes just made up the names because they couldn’t hear him properly, with the exception of “zerubabbel son of Shealtiel”
Luke is believed to be Paul's "secretary," for lack of a better word. So Paul was rapping and Luke couldn't hear him properly.
Luke definitely wrote it by himself. He was a scribe.
@@YooGeeOh he was a doctor
@@Darkfox1750 Yeah, a doctor who was also a scribe.
Being a doctor would have meant that Luke was educated and knew how to write. Keep in mind that education was not all that common in Jesus day, and relatively few knew how to write, thus, Luke, being able to write, would have been a natural chouce for a scribe.
Due to translation errors, some names were lost in translation. Sure, Mary was a popular name, but the Greek and later roman translators just translated other similar names as Mary
Mary was Miriam.
@@ImYourOverlord in Quran Maryam
Well, they really weren't greek translators. The originals were written in greek and Mary is Μαρία. The hebrew name would be the equivalent of Miriam, like James - Jacob, Jesus - Joshua. Mary was just a very common name in first century Judea and an unprecedented number of women living at the same time and interacting with each other are named.
I'm not really sure I'd make Mary of Bethany, Lazarus and Martha's sister, the same person as Mary Magdalene.
@@spikerz81 In Aramaic was Maryam too. She was named aftrr Maryam daughter of Imran, sister of prophet Moses. Similar to Prince Philip being named after Philip the Apostle. It's a normal human behavior to name your son or daughter after someone before you especially in the Semitic nationas. They name their children by copying the name of their prophets or anything cultural or traditional in their history.
Her Hebrew name was Miriam

One request, I know there are already many, but I would love a chart on the History of the Church and its branches (all the schisms & splits from the early christians) made by you in your style.
That's a great idea!!! I'd love to watch that
You do realise there are 36000 denominations of christianity.
2.4 billion members under the header christian. But all worlds apart in practice. Making each seperate cult actually tiny. You could say there are 36000 seperate concepts to the one god. Not including the fact many claim a personal relationship, which is never entirly the same as the persons sat next to you in church. Meaning you actually have about 2.4 billion, slightly the same concepts of a one singular god.
If that doesnt point out the sheer stupidity of unitedly worshipping one singular god, thats different in everyones personal mind!
Comical.
Do you also include judaism and islam. How about tracing the roots of the concepts christianity was adopted from. Sumerian beliefs.
Most of the stories are hijacked from there. Along with eygptian storys, like daniel. Originally eygptian, hijacked. Changed slightly and proclaimed as your own.

Adam and eve
Garden of eden
Moses character and the great flood. Plus many more. Some 5000 years before the time the character moses was meant to have lived.

Great Idea !
Even tracing my own geneology there are many name variations based soon the person that recorded the names. I’m not surprised at all that biblical names could differ yet be the same.
Spelling was not uniform until fairly recently, the last 200 or so years at most. Prior to that spelling was done based on phonetics which varied greatly based on things like geographic accents. I have found over a dozen spelling variations for my own surname going back 400+ years.

Well when they say "son" they usually just mean descendant, so it's okay to miss out generations from that pov
Would that example also be used for the terms "sons of god" (which is typically presented as either human followers of YHWH or angels) but in this example could be used to say that God literally had descendants? And for that matter, if Jesus is the "son of god" would that then lean more towards the idea that Jesus was also a decendant (created not equal of god) too?

@Esther Com I was wondering the same thing. Yes it appears he went with the RCC choice of the word brothers to be “cousins” instead of actual brother. I wonder does the word sister mean cousin? What about mother, does that mean cousin as well? His premiss forces him to use cousin so that the rest of Jesus genealogy can work for him.

@@TheHopperUK You are that one person who DOES NOT CLEARLY read the Bible. I don't buy with your thoughts. Too much IGNORANCE. ✌🏼
Something interesting to note with all the Marys in the Bible, is that they are all someone's wife, and referred to by their husband's name. And even the etymology of the word marriage comes from the name Miryam. I think it makes much more sense to think of Mary as an informal title, such as Mrs.
Agreed, in some ancient circles, women were called just woman. I believe even christ called his mother, woman
Myriam means bitter in Hebrew and Aramaic.
Mary, sister of Lazarus was not married. Mary of Magdala was also not married.
@@MaraJadeTX Myriam means lots of things. It's very debated what the oldest uses are. It only means bitter in middle Hebrew. If you read another sentence into your Google search you'd have figured that out. Other possible etymologies are Myr, meaning "beloved" or "of the sea".
@@MSRomsa Oh, yes. Only a single Google. I couldn't possibly be an educated person with a devotion to Mary Magdala. You are so obviously intellectually superior. And your claim of "wife" is the correct answer. 🙄
@@MaraJadeTX Well the only argument you've presented is literally the first sentence in a Google search, then the next sentence is my counter argument, so it doesn't seem like you're "devoted" to the subject of you don't even recognize that the etymology is disputed. If you're so knowledgeable then please enlighten me.
To me, the differing end bits between Matthew and Luke can just as easily be explained as BOTH being legitimate as neither being legitimate (and most likely both being some combination of the two). Sure, we think of them as just following the strictly patriarchal line, but if you allow for any deviation from that at all you can get a totally different set of names, yet still arrive at a common ancestor later. As a sort of parallel example, if you look at MY family tree, there are a couple of oddities that could lead to exactly this sort of thing. In one case, a man from a more distant part of the country arrived and married a woman whose family owned land, in a situation where even as a daughter she ultimately inherited said land. Since people in that time and place often had farm names functioning as surnames, and she had familial land and he didn’t, the family name went with the woman, not the man - otherwise unusual. In another instance, widespread famine led people to take various desperate measures. A couple left their young child with relatives and set off in search of food elsewhere, and never returned. You can easily see how a genealogy would list that child’s “parents” as the people who raised him and were known to future generations rather than his biological parents who vanished from the record early on. And, yes, because of the way math works, you can follow at least 15 different branches of the family tree and ultimately work your way back to the same one guy - the only one moderately famous enough that people kept track of extra generations to note how they were related to him while other branches peter out into obscurity.
So, it certainly doesn’t seem like at all of a leap to me to say that Luke just took a different turn at some debatable/confusing junctions than Matthew did, with both tossing in some symbolically important bits for good measure along the way.

But if Mary and Joseph are indeed cousins this makes allllllll the sense in the world.
This has been bothering me for the longest and no matter what you believe, God used you to give me an answer.
Thank you so much! I wasn't even looking for this, it just popped up on my suggestions. "Seek and ye shall find, knock and ......." God is so good!
Thanks for allowing yourself to be used.
Look for jesus in Islam
Re Mary & Joseph.... one of them had a line of kings, while the other had a line of priests. It's said of Jesus that He is a King & Priest.
That can be taken 2 ways.... one is via actual biologically thru Mary & Joseph (although remember there was no consummation between Mary & Joseph) perhaps by claiming Jesus as his son in that time period & culture Jesus would be considered Joseph's son. (Not sure how that worked? Maybe like today's adoption perhaps.
Then there's the spiritual angle in that Jesus is called King of kings and our high Priest.
Overall interesting to say the least.

I wonder if all these women were actually called Mary or that the authors of the gospel didn’t really care to name them properly. Like for Mary to have a sister named Mary sounds like lazy parenting
Or like a lot of Catholic families:
Mary Ann
Mary Catherine
Mary Elizabeth
Mary Claire
etc
Yep the authors are intentionally hiding the real names of those woman. A Mary is the same as saying a Joe.
just like they are intentionally hiding their own identity.
just like they are intentionally hiding the place and time of when they are writing their supposed account.
If you ever wrote anything important, at least to yourself, you would care to write who you are and why you are writing it.
These people are claiming to record the coming of GOD on earth and nothing should be more important than that, and yet they do not care.
The fact that they do not tell us this, is either that they have a really good valid reason for it, or they are making things up and don't want to take responsibility if things go wrong.
Up until now I have never heard a valid reason so I must assume the latter, since that is exactly what we do to this day when we don't want to take responsibility, remain anonymous.
That does not mean that what they are writing about is not historical, but you have to read it with skeptical attitude, because now you know that the authors have hidden agendas and do not care about making things up/add/remove to suit that agenda.
@@jeffvella9765 Wow, I have never thought about that. Thank you for the insightful comment.
Read the family tree of Daniel Boone, one named Mary died, so when another female child was born they named her Mary!
@@dayleeclaton9219 In those times the greeks usually named their first born child as the parent.
That has nothing to do with the fact that the author names nearly every woman Mary without actually focusing on identifying which Mary is he talking about.
EG
If you are writing a historical event you do not say. Joe did this and Joe son of joe was with him.
You use labels, titles, locations to make sure that people understand which joe you are referring to.
Eg:
Joe Agbaras of adiabeni did this and Joe maccabeas of the house of maccabeas of alexandria was with him.
Here the opposite is happening.
The authors do their best to make it impossible to find these people in real history.
It is called being as vague as possible to confuse the reader or divert attention.
This is usually used to record a piece of information but only people in specific circles will know who you are referring to.
I guarantee you that Mary "Mother of Jesus" does not have her family name "Mother of Jesus"
People must be blind not to see that this is obviously left out on purpose by all the authors.
Thank you for your thoughtful discussions of these issues. I'm interested in scholarly Bible study, but it's not always easy to find fact-based resources that don't engage in antitheism.
(Side note: in all my years of going to church I don't recall hearing the idea that Mary of Magdala was the sister of Martha. Certainly gives a new perspective on that story!)
Somewhere I saw that she was the mother of Jesus kids and he didn't died on a cross.this book is so chaotic to be pure
I guess it is difference of perspective there as I would argue most scholarily resources fact based reaoueces shy away from antitheism. In fact many are often bound by what i would argue is a bit of a problematic contract of acceptence on certain issues(even if they dont believe) for many of their jobs on scholarily work.
Then again i guess what is antitheism to some theists may be no where near antitheism to those who dont actually believe in the stuff and are trying to explore it.
The term “Virgin” for a woman then & long after those times meant an “unmarried” woman. Women were protected by their fathers, brothers or other males in the family & parents arranged marriages for both their sons & daughters. The two families agree to the union & essentially they are “married.” Generally brides marry young, & in most cases the grooms are young. This is to ensure males are not carnally tempted. There is no way Mary would go about pregnant & not be married because she would have been stoned to death. To assume Joseph & Mary had a platonic relationship is naive. The purpose of marriage is to have children.
There is nothing wrong with assuming that Mary & Joseph had many children. There is nothing wrong with that.
Since UsefulCharts was so careful not to try to tell anyone what they should or shouldn't believe, it's a good thing we have you here to correct his oversight and make sure everyone believes correctly. His approach was too darned ecumenical and inclusive. Not preachy enough.
Although it’s funny, his scholarly opinion says you’re wrong, and all of the first 200 years of Christianity also says that. Hmm.
The Greek word "adelphoi" translated into English as "brothers" can mean close relatives e.g. first cousins.

Jesus Christ has shown me the light through blessings, guidance, and strength! In Christ’s name I pray and you too can pray in His name starting today. Don’t put it off, come to the Son of God and believe in the one true savior as your LORD and Savior.

Haha, I am a Christian, but in all honesty, the more I study Roman/Greek and etc history. The more I learn about early Christianity. The more I actually lean towards Jesus never actually existing. Where before I was more on the idea that he was a person. But once you start noticing parallels in different stories even comparing Caesar and Jesus, you start noticing Jesus being more an idea than a real person.
I bring up Caesar only because he was always being generous and forgiving his enemies, giving second chances (as long as they were Romans lol) , only to be betrayed in the end by a so-called friend. Then after that, all emperors would take up his name. Cesar being the king of Romans. Jesus being called the King of the Jews.
Hoo boy, wanna start here?
Joseph was also called son of David when the angel addressed him about Mary being pregnant with the son of god
bloodline of david.
In Hebrew, Yahusef ben David. His surname was ben David HaNotzrim. When you hear anyone in the English Bible translations calling Jesus "son of David" it is not a recognition of Messiahship but rather his surname Davidson or Davies or ben David. So he was Joshua Davidson or Joshua Davies or in Hebrew Yahoshuah ben David HaNotzrim HaMasshiah.
I am a Christian and learned a song about the 12 disciples when I was a little girl. The song confirms what you said about His cousins. Here are the first words:
There were twelve disciples Jesus called to help him- Simon Peter, Andrew, James, his brother John, Phillip, Thomas, Matthew, James the son of Alphaeus, Thaddaeus, Simon, Judas and Bartholomew.
Thank you for your diligent work on this genealogy. I am a Christian and have never seen this in detail before.
According to Islam,
Imran (Joachim) had 2 daughters. The elder one was married to Zakariya (Zechariah) Peace be upon him, and had a son named Yahya (John the Baptist) Peace be upon him. The Younger daughter of Imran was Maryam (Mary) Peace be upon her, who miraculously gave birth to Esa (Jesus) Peace be upon him.
Mohammad was confused with Amram the father of Moshe .
imran and Yovachim is two people.
your Quran is confusing Miriyam the sister of Moshe with Mariyam The mother of Jesus . .
That's why your Mariyam has got a brother called Harun and a father called imran .
The Miriyam in Bible ( sister of Moshe ) has a brother called Aharon and a father c called Amram
According to valid reports, a bag of rice fell from a transporter yesterday (somewhere in central China).

Funny how in my language we don't have a word for cousin, only older brother or younger brother or sister, however if u wish to make a distinction you say "my older/younger brother from my uncle"
What language ?

"All Scripture is given by inspiration of the Holy Spirit......" God is not a God of confusion........ "..without faith it is impossible to please God".
@@cloudofw3313
Scripture is God's word. Whether on scrolls or in book form, still scripture.
@@cloudofw3313 Here is a verse that might help. 2 Peter 3:15-16 NKJV. Peter infers that he considers Paul's writings to be scripture: "as also our beloved brother Paul, according to the wisdom given to him, has written to you, 16 as also in all his epistles, speaking in them of these things, in which are some things hard to understand, which untaught and unstable people twist to their own destruction, as they do also the rest of the Scriptures."
I was just thinking, how blessed we are today to have scripture in bible form so abundantly. But, how sad it is that so few believe and even fewer even read the Bible. It is the best book ever. God is amazing and His Glory will soon be revealed in man. Jesus loves you so much He died and suffered enormously for you. Such a beautiful, free gift. How beautiful are the feet of those who bring good news. Even so, Come Lord Jesus.
@@jbean530 I'm afraid most people turn away from Christianity BECAUSE they read the bible. It's a disgusting, evil and obviously made up book. It doesn't even stand up to scientific scrutiny. The very least it should do.
“The heavens declare the glory of God so that no man is without excuse”. Who gives you the breath of life every day? Who suspends the earth upon nothing? Who formed you in your mother’s womb? Who numbered the very hairs on your head? Can you even change the color of one hair on your head? Who formed you from the very dust of the earth and gave you the breath of life? How do you know your heart will beat when you wake up? How do you know your lungs will keep breathing while you sleep? How do you know all these things?
9:52 Saint Mary Magdalene and Saint Mary the sister of Saint Martha and Saint Lazarus are all different person. Saint Mary of Bethany (sister of Martha), she's the one who listened and pour the perfume to the feet of Jesus. In the Roman Martyrology in 2004, Magdalene, Mary, sister of Martha, as well as the woman commit adultery are all different people. This is because of the further research by the biblical scholars as well as the scientists. Therefore, feast day of the three siblings of Bethany is on July 29. Mary of Magdala, also known as Mary Magdalene was on July 22.
Added information for some people:
In the gospel of Luke, he metioned disciple who were women. Namely, Magdalene, Joanna wife of Chuza, and Susanna (which means lily), a Galilean woman. It is believed they are the principal sponsors in Jesus' death and burial. Although Joanna and Magdalene are saints in the Roman Catholic Church, through the Roman Martyrology (old and revised version). However, Susanna still not considered as a saint in the Catholic Church. But who knows, maybe in the future.
In the Philippines during Holy week procession, women in the bible (saints and traditional) are included. For some added information this is the lists of women in the bible (time of Jesus) who are venerated in Christianity, as a saint that's included in the procession.
Saint Photina - The Samaritan woman who spoke to Jesus in the Gospel of John. She is attributed with a jar with well; a martyr.
Saint Veronica - The one with a veil with a bloody face of Jesus.
Saint Mary, mother of John Mark (Mark the evangelist) - The owner of the house where Last Supper took place; one of the principal sponsors too. She is also known as Mary of Jerusalem.
Saint Joanna of Chuza - The wife of Chuza, friend with Magdalene and Susanna of Galilea; one of the principal sponsors of Jesus; often seen attributed with a treasure box with jewelries.
Saint Mary, wife of Cleofas - Wife of Cleofas aka Alfeo and cousin of the Blessed Virgin Mary; mother of Saints Joseph Barsabbas "Justo", Simeon of Jerusalem, James the Less, Simon the Zealot, Jude Thaddeus (known to have resemblance with Christ), and Mary Salome.
Saint Mary Jacobe - Mary, wife of Cleophas and Mary Jacobe are same person; She is called Mary, the wife of Cleophas or Mary son of Jacob (James and Jude) ; Traditionally, two images joined during every processions since before. But in year 2012, St. John the Baptist Parish of Taytay, Rizal wrote a letter to the Catholic Bishop Conference of the Philippines (CPCP) Episcopal Commission on the Liturgy, asking if Mary wife of Cleophas, and Mary Jacobe are similar. CPCP answered it that they are indeed similar person.
Saint Mary Salome - Aunt of Jesus; mother of Saints James and John the evangelist.
Saint Martha - The elder sister of Mary of Bethany and Lazarus; known to be the busy sister of Mary while Jesus visited them at their house in Bethany.
Saint Mary of Bethany - Sister of Martha; the one who listened to Jesus' preaching and the one who poured the expensive perfume in the feet of Christ; Bethany siblings are blue blooded or a member of the rich family. They have lands in Israel, like Magdala which Mary Magdalene came from. This is were the confusion boomed.
Saint Mary Magdalene - Friends with Susanna, Joanna, and Claudia wife of Pontius Pilate (she's known to be the dreamer of Jesus). Accompanied Mary from the passion and death, until the resurrection together with John. She is different with Mary, sister of Martha and Lazarus, as well as to the adulterer woman in the bible.
Special mentions to some holy or notable women in the bible during the Passion and Death of Christ (Holy week). Traditional Female images in the Filipino Holy week celebration.
Susanna - A rich Galilean woman, sponsored Jesus burial
Claudia - Friend of Magdalene, the wife of Pilate. Gave sudario to Magdalene to clean the blood of Christ after scourging at the pillar.
Merry Christmas fellow nerds
Merry Christmas Useful Charts. Also could you do a video on the Roosevelts?
How many Marys do you want?
The bible: yes
@@Cjnw your name is angela you don't have a point
John the Baptist was actually Jesus' cousin whose mother was Elizabeth, so the fact that they actually refer to John the Baptist as a cousin and the others as sisters and brothers make me think they were actual siblings
Matthew is probably Mary’s line because his aim when writing the Gospel was to reach the Jewish people and Jewish people follow a Maternal timeline,
This makes sense, as Matthew and Mark were likely the only gospels alive to record the events as contemporaries. They would likely have the greatest interest in appealing to the predominantly Jewish populace as Jesus would still be a controversial figure. Meanwhile Luke (and especially John) would be more accustomed to the Roman tracing of lineage.
Just as a side note, John the Gospel was not John the Disciple. The Gospel was written around 85AD, nearly 50 years after Jesus' crucifixion, and long enough for the religion to develop a couple of generations.
@@skittybug6937 This whole thing is dumb since according to popular christian belief Joseph is NOT jesus's biological father. So what was the sense of giving Joseph's alleged genealogical in Matthew and Luke anyway? And both Matthew and Luke were giving Joseph's lineage
Jesus was a Jew. Mary and Joseph were Jews. Jesus lived his entire life as a Jew. He was a Rabbi. I’m Catholic, I respect the Jewish religion, because my Lord and Saviour was a Jew.
Jesus wasnt a rabbi. That's just a common myth spread around by ppl who dont believe there was no such thing as rabbis at the time rabbinical Judaism didn't come around till the destruction of the second temple after jesus's death
@@brian5128 - He was a teacher and the translation today is rabbi. There are four Aramaic words that appear as titles for Jesus: Rabbi or teacher; Amen or prophet; Messias or Christ; Mar or Lord.
@@brian5128 - Your post is peppered with numerous grammatical errors. Double negative, failure to use contractions, misspelling, failure to capitalize a proper name.
Brush up on your grammar, then maybe people will take your comments seriously.
@@mchapman132 I think he’s Protestant
Because I still remember my teacher saying Jesus studied to be a rabbi
Because he knew how to read and was called teacher

Thank you. What I have learned in my fairly long life is that there is something to be learned from all Belief systems. If people could learn to be respectful and tolerant of each other all of humanity would benefit. One lifetime does not appear to be enough to absorb it all. ❤👍
ALL religions except Christianity, man's "advancement" happens as he/she works to gain God's approval. But in Christianity, salvation is a total gift obtained by a simple
faith in Christ.
True!
@@duffgordon9005 The way you state that about Christianity is really oversimplified and therefore simply untrue. ..there seems to be a cult of ministers and congregations spouting that salvation in Christianity is simply a gift from God for having faith in such: However, (for one example) there are Commandments to be followed, isn't all...for another example, (and I have studied theology at Fordham University) part of the divine science is really a science that we don't easily see, but the Bible does say in Acts that the Acts of character are important: "Faith without action is dead."....isn't all.
Wow, I'm truly impressed by the meticulous work put into this Genealogy of Jesus video! The attention to detail and the effort in synthesizing and presenting this wealth of knowledge is commendable. It's not an easy task to trace such a significant lineage, but you've done it beautifully. Thank you for sharing this enlightening piece of history with the audience. Kudos to the team behind this fantastic production!
I got 4 of your charts for Christmas lol
Niiiiice!
Yet another excellent video! I only realized how long I'd been watching when I was interrupted with just a couple minutes left. So engrossing that 25 minutes felt like 5!

He did a horrible job , in Mathew 13 55 there is no mention of SISTERS ( read the Bible yourself to see the original) ALSO brothers doesn’t mean exclusively Siblings neither in Hebrew , Greek or Arabic it mean 90% of times friends, cousins , fellow ....he is either misleading In purpose or just ignorant ...
I thought you did a great job here Matt, especially describing all of the reasons for the differences in the written lineages. You did a pretty good job of juggling all the different stories.
