Matthew's Genealogy: 5 Subtle Clues Modern Readers Miss | Whiteboard Bible Study

- Instead of beginning his story of Jesus' life with an exciting narrative, Matthew begins his gospel with Jesus' genealogy: a list of more than 40 names. To modern readers, this is pretty boring. But to Matthew's original audience, there were some subtle clues-"Easter eggs," if you will-about the story Matthew's about to tell.
You can see the whiteboard capture and read the transcript here: overviewbible.com/matthew-gen...
I am a new subscriber and the first video I watched was your "Overview" of Matthew. By the end of the video I was hoping you covered this very important topic on genealogy that really needs to be explained. Most Christians I know have no idea of the importance of this list of genealogy and in all honesty, I only found out about 5 years ago. For me, it was a huge eye opener for the simple fact that the Jews rely on geneology to validate families and the line of kingship. Your explanation offered me even more insight to this genealogy and I thank you!
You ROCK! I just started the NT over again using the Passion audio translation and got curious when Amos' name came up. This video came up and (as an ESL teacher) I am super impressed at how you brought to life one of those chapters I've always felt guilty for skipping. Love the fact that someone is pointing out these kinds of Easter Eggs!!! Bless you bro!!!
Thanks, Emily! It's fascinating to me how many little nuggets there are to find when you study the Bible as a body of literature. I'm so glad this is helpful. =)
Hi, please watch Mike Winger's review on the Passion version, he is a humble reasonable great Bible teacher. He is very graceful, and careful about pointing out any wrongs unless really researched and necessary. He shows findings of Passion translation,,some real concerns, problems.
Hope this helps you. There are many wonderful translations out there
This is a terrible translation that you should steer completely away from
Another brilliant discussion, Jeffrey! Once again revealing the beautiful nuances in the Word.
Thanks for the kind words, Jamey! =)
Thanks for posting this. It was exactly what I was looking for.
What a rollercoaster the book of Matthew is! ❤
Wow, this was brilliant! I had never seen the start of Matthew in this light.
Yeah, I just thought it was Jesus's actual genealogy. I didn't know he made stuff up and lied about some of the names.
Hi , your video is amazing but I have some doubts. How is asaph and amos came to David genealogy even so if it is mentioned by mathew in greek writing
I Love your lessons. Today's has me so confused. I will hit save and revisit Mathew lesson. Somehow I feel like I need to begin again. Is there a follow up to this for a greater understanding?
Hi Jeffrey. I loved your Matthew overview board, so decided to check this out. However, I've just checked my greek bible and I wanted to ask how you came to the conclusion that Asa should read Asaph and Amon, Amos. In my version, they clearly say Asa and Amon. I'd really like you to clear this up for me. Thanks again for all your insight into the gospel of Matthew.
Hi, Trish! Which Greek Bible are you using? I'm using the NA-27 Greek New Testament, which attempts to be as close to the original Koine Greek New Testament documents as possible. (It is different from a modern Bible printed in modern Greek.) You can see where I'm getting this here: overviewbible.com/matthew-genealogy-jesus/
👍🏽 Interesting observation. Jacob (Israel) and Joseph (Pharaoh's second in command) and Jacob (grandfather of Jesus) and Joseph, Jesus's father.
The Bible never fails to impress.
After grasping the story of Old Testament, rereading Matthew 1 gives so much hype similar to if not more than Avengers Infinity War and Endgame. That much hype, from reading a BOOK! Truly what makes Bible a masterpiece!
I need English Subtitle. It went on Japanese. I am Deaf. I would love to listen what you said about this lesson.
Wow thanks for making genealogy interesting!
Awesome! Awesome! Awesome video! Will recommend. Thanks!
Which version of the bible do you use concerning Asa/Asaph and Amon/Amos?
The original Greek.
Which I've read over a dozen times and never caught the name switch! Just show how much understanding the New Testament requires really knowing the Old!
Wish you made more videos
Bro can you please explain the difference in genealogy given by Mathew and Luke in Bible why there is huge difference in numbers of generations?
Matthew's numbering isn't historically accurate it's a narrative choice to force the pattern of 14s, or 7s. He intentionally skips a few generations in at least 2 groups to get the numbering. It's symbolic.
The other genealogy lists Mary’s line. Both Mary and Joseph were of the tribe of Judah, but physically Jesus came through Mary’s bloodline and not Joseph’s since she was still a virgin at that time. It’s interesting because we usually think of the man contributing the “seed” in a normal pregnancy, but Gen 3:15 says, “And I (God) will put enmity between thee (Satan) and the woman, and between thy seed and HER SEED, it (the woman’s seed - Jesus) shall bruise thy (Satan’s) head, and thou (Satan) shalt bruise his (the woman’s seed - Jesus) heel.”
@@judywilson5183 lol, I always thought this was talking about enmity between men and women.
@@judywilson5183 Judy, I was taught that to, but it cannot be true!! Let me explain;
Elizabeth was of the daughters of Aaron according to the scripture, right!
Mary went to see Elizabeth when she was in her 6th month,
5 In the days of Herod, king of Judea, there was a priest named Zechariah, of the division of Abijah. And he had a wife from the *****daughters of Aaron, ****and her name was Elizabeth. 6 And they were both righteous before God, walking blamelessly in all the commandments and statutes of the Lord. 7 But they had no child, because Elizabeth was barren, and both were advanced in years.

36 And behold, your**** relative***** Elizabeth in her old age has also conceived a son, and this is the sixth month with her who was called barren.

Now in the Greek, "relative " is ;
4773a. συγγενής suggenēs; from 4862 and 1085; congenital, hence akin to, subst. a kinsman, relative:-kinsman(1), kinsmen(3), relative(1), relatives(6).

So this would make Mariam one of the daughters of Aaron, a Levite, right!!!
Just came across this when I wanted to understand a bit more about the genealogy!
Question: I’m still kind of confused as to why Asaph and Amos were used instead of asa and Amon? I get the wink part and the meaning under using those names in terms of like OT fulfillment but were Asaph and Amon still in Jesus’ genealogical line or were they just, for a lack of a better word, randomly chosen?
Neither, really. The psalmist Asaph and the prophet Amos are not part of Jesus' line. However, their names are similar enough to the names of Asa and Amon that Matthew chose to switch them out. We don't know why he choose those particular names to alter.
Don't take this explanation seriously.
He is not correct. There are various variants of the names listed in source materials. But if you check the translations, they have listed the actual names of the Kings
Where does the 400yrs of Egyptian slavery fall in the genealogy?
Like we know Judah was called Judah, but in new testament he’s mentioned as Judas. Ezekiel is ezekias, isaiah is isaias… so maybe thus amon: Amos, Asa: Asaf??
Will you do / have you done a video on the genealogy presented in Luke?
Ah, I hope to do one! Caught some sickness this Advent season, which put some delays on my nativity-themed videos. =)
This makes no sense. Mary was A VIRGIN. Based on that fact Joseph was not Jesus father. If Joseph was not his father then these genealogies are both 100% WRONG
@@ayindemurphy5243 Go and study first the Jewish culture and customs of that time before rushing to that conclusion. Check the information in a good Bible commentary. Don't be too hasty.
@@flaviorodrigues5466 what do you mean by go and study the Jewish culture...???Geneaology goes from father to son with no exception. Joseph was not a biological father of Jesus and cannot be linked to King David lineage what so ever.
@@jenna1395 well u can't trace Davidic lineage thru Mary. It goes from father to son with no exception. Her parents are not known but even if they were Jewish, Mary could only pass jewishness on Jesus. Not David's bloodline.
So no connection on Mary's side.
No chance
Ok?
Hi Jeffrey.
I went back to the old testament to see if the father of the "king Asa" was really Abijah, and also if his son was Jehoshaphat. And I found that it's true. So, how can you be sure that should be written "Asaph" instead of "Asa"? The context confirms that was the "king Asa".
It's not a matter of what "should" have been written, it's a matter of what _was_ written. The Greek manuscripts of the Gospel of Matthew say "Asaph" here. The English translators "fixed" this spelling to be consistent with the Old Testament genealogies.
Sometimes in the translation process, you sacrifice the original artistry for the sake of clarity. =)
Wow this was amazing 🤩
From Verse 12 -16 there are only 13 names. If I’m not mistaken?? Which would make its 6??
Count it from Jeconiah .....since in Matthew Chapter 1: 17th Verse it was mentioned as from Babylonian Captivity to Christ
Fascinating!!!!
Very nice discussion. Maybe I could think of Matthew as stepping up to a university lectern. The audience is prepared for a stuffy academic exercise. Great scholars are listening critically. But Matthew doesn't read from notes or draw out any kind of tree. Instead he cues music and dims the lights. He throws boring precision out the window in order to simply say (1) all prophesies about his lineage are fulfilled, (2) all branches of every lineage belong to him! I hope that doesn't sound too liberal. I hope people will see this list not as weakening the bible but in fact elevating it as a work of art. Matthew saw Christ as already glorified and victorious. He doesn't stoop to dot i's and cross t's in order that the geneology society might deem the Lord acceptable. A perfect geneology was probably doable, but it doesn't serve the purpose for us; it fails to give perspective like Matthew does.
It was really helpful
I read the names a hundred times, then it dawned on me, lineage and bloodlines are important. Put this together with your studies.
Prophets, Kings, and Judges all wraps it up.
I love how the Torah was written. Coded.
Shalom.
Where does the 400yrs of Egyptian slavery fall in the genealogy?
@@arpthirteen6713 Gen 46 says Jacob (Israel) entered Egypt with his son Judah, and his son Pharez (whose mother was Tamar), and his son Hezron. These 4 generations went down to Egypt together, but since the slavery didn’t begin until Joseph died AND a new pharaoh came to power that didn’t know Joseph (Exod 1:8), and Jacob had already died (Gen 49:33-50:14),and probably Judah too since he was an older brother; that means slavery probably began with the generation of Pharez. The line continues after Pharez(Pharez) - Hezron(Esrom) - Aram - Aminadab - Naasson - Salmon (Matt 1:1-5). Salmon married Rahab after Jericho was destroyed, so he would have been born during the 40 years of wandering in the wilderness. His father Naasson was probably the last generation to experience slavery, but then died during the wandering years (unless he was under 20 years old when the Israelites refused to enter Canaan after the 12 spies returned and God said everyone 20 and older would die during the next 40 years - except Joshua and Caleb.)
@@judywilson5183 It doesn't fit bro. So everyone had their child when they were 100yrs old?
@@arpthirteen6713 I agree! In fact, if you look at the tribe of Levi, that becomes very clear. Gen 46:11 says Levi entered Egypt with his sons Gershon, Kohath, and Merari. Here’s the lineage : Levi - Kohath - Amram (married Jochebed) - Aaron and Moses (brothers). Kohath lived to age 133 (Exod 6:18). Amram lived to 137 (Exod 6:20). Moses was 80 when he returned to Egypt and the plagues began (Exod 7:7). If Kohath was born the day before they entered Egypt (so he could still be listed as “entering” Egypt), that would mean 133 yrs in Egypt. If his son Amram was born the day he died, that would mean the Israelites had been there 133 + 137 = 270 yrs at Amram’s death. If Moses was born the day Amram died, by the time the plagues started 80 years later would have been 270 + 80 = 350 yrs in Egypt. And it’s silly to think they would have each become fathers at the time of death. Not only were they not in slavery for 400 years, they weren’t even in Egypt for 400 years. ( Another gem - Jochebed was the daughter of Levi (Numb 26:59)).

I would hane like it if he had explain why on the last sets of 14 there are actually 13 name only and not 13 ?
awesome, thank you
in luke's (3:23->) , Jesus is the 70th generation from adam. God loves seven.
Very nice!
It says in matt 1:17that from the carrying away into Babylon unto Christ are 14 generations but when you count them this sectuon only has 13 so who is the 14th generation is it the church who becomes the sons if God
In verse 11 it says Josias begot Jechonias, this is number 1. Christ is number 14.
There is 14
Also, there is a guy named Nehemiah Gordon who has found some Hebrew manuscripts in a “Vatican junk box” that include the geneology in Matthew...it says in Hebrew Joseph, father of Mary, mother of Jesus. So if that’s true that could resolve the confusion between the two geneologies. One is Mary’s side, Luke’s could be Joseph’s?
Matthew is missing Ahaziah, Joash, Amaziah comapre list from 1 Chronicles 3:10-16 and also he leaves out king Jehoiakim.. So it not 14 generation.. it more like 19.. because he left out 4 names... so I guess we need to rethink the claim of 14 generations
@@hopeisorange it a know manuscript but it was not canonized because it does not line up with other Greek manuscripts. And if it happens to be correct than you all other manuscripts are WRONG and you have to admit there is a mistake in your New Testament Bible and than you have to ask if something is inspired by G-d how can there be a mistake?
See, I always read that and was like, "Cool story, bro. You understand the implications of Mary being a virgin, right? Joseph isn't part of His lineage."
Hey hope you good
Please read chapter 1 verse 16
@@leboganglerumo2289 this verse? "Thus there were fourteen generations in all from Abraham to David, fourteen from David to the exile to Babylon, and fourteen from the exile to the Messiah." But we know the number of generations was wrong, he changed it to be multiples of 7. How is that related to mary being a virgin?
@@heinzerbrew text me please so we can discuss?
The lineage through Joseph (by adopting) shows Jesus kingship. The lineage through blood (David->Mary) is found in Luke.
why does the captions option default to Japanese? Personally, I can understand you just fine. But I have students who struggle with understanding English. And having a system go from English to Japanese default and then caption it in English? No, it just does not work.
Why does Matthew list 14 generations in the first part where there were, in fact, 18 generations. Something doesn't add up. Any explanation?
The short answer is that it's not supposed to add up. The author of the Gospel of Matthew is using this genealogy to make a rhetorical point, and isn't even pretending to be factual (hence the blatant omission of certain kings and the changing of certain names).
@OverviewBible Doesn't that make the author unreliable (and the whole Bible)? I'm a Christian, how am I supposed to deftend THAT? 🤔 😣
You don't need to defend anything. The author took some liberties in crafting this genealogy (and indeed, the entire gospel) to make a greater point. This was acceptable for first-century Christian leaders and congregations.
I'd advise against this "all or nothing" mentality when it comes to the reliability of the Bible, as it usually involves us bringing rules to the Bible that its authors never intended to keep. No author of the Bible had any idea what "the Bible" was, as the Christian canons weren't established until hundreds of years after the latest books of the New Testament were written. Matthew's genealogy simply doesn't match the genealogy in Chronicles. To imagine that this fact invalidates the wisdom of the Sermon on the Mount in Matthew (let alone the principles of the Proverbs or the warnings in John's first epistle) seems like an unnecessary stretch.
Christianity was around for centuries before we had what we call "the Bible." It was around for even more centuries before we started heaping on these expectations regarding contradictions and inconsistencies. I suspect that the religion will long outlive these expectations, too.
For what it's worth: in my own experience, the more I read, study, and learn about the Bible, the less need I feel to defend it. Maybe you'll have this experience too. =)
To have 18 (or 19 or 20) generations, you must have 14 (and then some more)
What does not add up?
Hi Jeffrey. You stated in the latter part of the video that "Joseph is the father of Jesus". I think Jesus was conceived by the power of the Holy Spirt thus Joseph was just a foster father not a biological father.
Hence, I do not find the relevance of the geneology to Jesus.
Can you elaborate on this further?
It is a legal question
I just don't understand why Matthew would use Asaph in place of Asa if it fact Abijah fathered Asa. Please help me understand this, I feel like I'm missing something
OH GLORY!!!
MOR REASON TO TREMBLE!!!!!!!
subed/shared/thanks brother
The genealogies in Matthew & Luke do not conflict or contradict. They are genealogies of Joseph and Mary. The genealogical list in Matthew, from David to Jacob-Heli (spanning 1000 years), contains 27 generations of 40 years each, so as to comply with the 40 year royal generational standard. Luke, on the other hand, gives 40 generations of a more comprehensible 25 years each. Hence, Luke places Jesus in the 20th generation from Zerubbabel, whereas Matthew places him in the 11th generation from Zerubbabel. SUMMARY' Matthew---27 generation of 40 years from Solomon. Patriarchal--Zerubbabel's father's line. Luke---40 generations of 25 years from Nathan. Matriarchal--Zerubbabel's mother's line. Solomon & Nathan are both Davids's sons. Their lines converge at Zerubbabel, then diverge. Zerubbabel had two sons, Abiud & Rhesa. Matthew goes from Abiud, Mary's line. Luke goes from Rhesa, Joseph's line. Mary & Joseph were also related. Joseph was Mary's great-aunt Gadat's son. Mary's mother was Hannah. Her father was Joachim, the Elias Patriarch. Joseph's mother was Gadat. His father was Heli, the Jacob Patriarch. His community distinction was Jacob. Jacob was a title, so he would be called Jacob-Heli. Joachim's mother was Sabartia (Sabhrath). His father was Matthat the Zadok. Heli's father was Matthan ( descended from Mattathias (Tobias) rhe Temple governor.

What is a parable?
Colossians 3.3
John 14
Why doesn't Matthew's geneology match the lineage given in Chronicles? It looks like he altered it to add up to 3 sets of 14.
It's a bit of a stretch to say that they're three perfect sets of 14, at that.
Matthew's making a rhetorical point, using the history of Israel as his opening overture for his collection of discourses attributed to Jesus.
This is neat thanks
hm, try to overlap with the julio-claudians geneaology, especially the Germancus branch. Clears it all up.
How's that?
Brilliant
It's interesting to see that Jesus first coming was as the King of Judah, and that his second coming will be as the King of Israël, where he will appear as Joseph
Wow! This is really well done.
Don’t know if this will help, but Matthew left out some kings, so Matthew’s primary motive wasn’t naming every single descendant.
Did he miss Jeconiah? I was hoping this guy would address the curse on Jeconiah in Jeremiah 22:30. 🤦♀️
Another video for another time!
That should tell you something along with the "pagan eggs" and "winks/assumptions". NathanH83 covers it with his explanation.

Nothing tk address he was cursed an more curse never litted and Joseph was a steo father so waste of tin anyway
The order that the books are presented in (what we today call) the New Testament is not divinely inspired. So I don't think we can say God decided to "start the New Testament" with Jesus' Genealogy. I believe that the Gospel of Mark was written first, among the Gospels. But I believe there are likely Epistles that were written earlier. We can perhaps say that Genesis starts the canon and Revelation closes it. - but that is as far as I would go.
Jewish readers would also have noticed that there were three names/generations that Matthew omitted; I was hoping to see something about that.
You're right! I probably could have made that a bit more explicit in my treatment of the generation count-maybe someday I'll do a video on the "lost kings" of Matthew's genealogy.
@@OverviewBible That would be most excellent!
Rehab can not be the same rehab of the book of Joshua it was at least 400 years between Boaz and the rahab of the book of Joshua
A source would be helpful here-but imposing historicity on this genealogy is probably not the best use of time. ;-)
The presentation is good because it is simple and understandable for everyone. I would have a small correction.
If we read the text carefully, there are only 13 names in the third group.
The name David stands at the beginning of the second group. If we look at the blackboard, there are only 13 names. My question: Where do we find the fourteenth generation?
I now reveal a secret, but first we read Matthew 1:17:
So all generations from Abraham to David were fourteen generations, and from David to the deportation to Babylon fourteen generations, and from the deportation to Babylon to Christ fourteen generations.
The verse makes it clear that after the deportation there were 14 generations. Before I deliver the solution, here is an important hint. The Gospel of Matthew will repeat itself in a similar way in the future, because God has promised that he will speak two or three times. The first time about 2000 years ago. The second time with the beginning of Martin Luther's Reformation. The third time God speaks after the Rapture.
And now we come to the resolution of the riddle.
As we read in verse 17, the last part of the sentence reads: and from the deportation to Babylon to Christ fourteen generations, then it means: Jesus is the thirteenth in this sequence and "the Christ", are we. The born-again Christians are "spiritually" born out of the seed of Jesus, the grain of wheat laid in the earth. We are the fourteenth generation in the third third.
Ephraim and Manasseh are already allegorically marked out by the sons of Joseph in the Old Testament as shadow images.
SO COOL
Arius Calpurnius Piso - Who Wrote The New Testament
Both Josephs went down to Egypt and Joseph means "to add/increase".
If that’s the case if Joseph took Jesus to Egypt than why does Luke leave that out? Read Luke 2:39-42
39 And when they had performed everything according to the Law of the Lord, they returned into Galilee, to their own town of Nazareth. 40 And the child grew and became strong, filled with wisdom. And the favor of God was upon him. 41 Now his parents went to Jerusalem every year at the Feast of the Passover. 42 And when he was twelve years old, they went up according to custom.
How could Joseph bring Jesus every year to the feast if he was worried about Herod. They were in Egypt for 3 years... no mention in Luke about fleeing to Egypt..
@@bel31670 Why mention in Luke? Luke wasn't focusing on the Herodian persecution. But he was addressing to Theophilos as "Most excllent". He was most likely from the Aaronic priesthood residing in Egypt. And if that's true, he's probably aware of that event so there would be no need to mention it.
@@gilgalbiblewheel6313 that’s a pretty poor answer..

@@bel31670 Poor answer? Don't you think that's a slanderous remark? We need to consider how long was the duration of Joseph and Mary fleeing to Egypt along with the at least 2 year old child Jesus until Herod the Great has died. Where does it say they were in Egypt for 3 years?

I one day hope to know of all these easter eggs and winks throughout the Bible.
Just goes to show.... the Bible really was inspired through God. Man wrote it, but by Gods supervision and authority.
When people argue that its just a fairy tail by a man, it really shows their ignorance on 2 points.
It mentions 42 generations but 41 are listed. Unless Christ or the Body of Christ is the 42nd generation.
But why is the mathematics of the genealogy wrong? This I find a stumbling block.
Matthew skipped generations. Simple.
Do you mean the maths of 6 lots of 7? If so, then I wonder if that could suggest there is some kind of special 7 coming on Jesus return? maybe? Followed by that special 50, meaning Jubilee? I'm not sure, but that's how I see it (at the moment) given what this video offered. I'm wondering too. God bless 🙏
In Matthew 1:17, it says that from the captivity in Babylon, there are fourteen generations but if we count back from Sheatiel to Jesus it has only thirteen generations HOWEVER we have to take into consideration that GOD impregnated Mary by places part of His Holy Spirit in her which makes GOD the thirteenth generation and Jesus the fourteenth.
Now I'm not saying that God is one of Jacob's descendants, what happened instead was God stepped in and placed part of His Holy Spirit inside Mary's womb in the form of Jesus which is why in verse 17 in says fourteen generations instead of thirteen
Everything is just perfect but kindly stand aside from the board it's little bit 🤏 problem for me to understand tnq🙏
Isn’t Joseph Mary’s father? Translated from the Aramaic. The genealogy isn’t 14 away from the Babylonian exile if you say it’s Joseph’s line which then makes Matthew contradict itself.
GBU
Another Bible scholar says that the Bible says "Jacob begot Joseph the man of Mary" And, that man of a woman is her father. See Nelson Walters.
Blood line should follow mariem ( matu) linage, and then look at Joseph linage because in those days the man was who people look at. So they should both have come from the house of David
Wasnt Boaz married to Ruth?
asa and asaph most likely is a scribal blunder
Amen to God ✝️🛐❤️🙏

Where does the 400yrs of Egyptian slavery fall in the genealogy?
the book of mark is actually the real first book of the new testament, not matthew.
Matthew was written before the Romans destroyed the temple in 70 AD. Mark being the first Gospel written was a theroy first put forth in 1863 AD. Irenacus 180 AD and Papias 140 AD both credit Matthew as the first author of the Gospels writting between 60-65 AD.
A great exegesis.!
You should mention that Sabbath MEANS seventh
Sorry...Rahab is not the Rahab during the Jericho siege... Joshua days to David is roughly 500+ yrs (Days of Elders + Judges+ Samuel) Days of Judges is already 450 yrs to Samuel.... it is impossible!
I find myself bewildered when Christians take things literally without a deeper understanding of the historical context and the theological claims of Matthews account of Jesus genealogy. To give credit and merit where its due let us first analyse the names that are given to us by the first gospel to ensure that there is some order and credibility to the succession from father to son in the genealogy structure presented to us by Matthew. Im not surprised by Christians who repetitively fall in the trap of accepting things at face value without careful examination of the text. First we are told that this is the genealogy of Jesus to ascertain his lineage to the house of David and tribe of Judah. Then towards the end of the Gospel we are told that there are fourteen generations from Abraham to David and from David to the exile to Babylon another fourteen generations and from the carryimg away to Babylon Unto Jesus fourteen generations (Matthew 1:17). Yet in comparison with 1 Chronicles 3: 5 -15 we know for a fact that from Solomon to Jeconiah is eighteen generations not fourteen as Matthew quoted. How is this?? Well in case you wondering, its because Matthew used mathematical genius to omitt four of the names to show that it was fourteen generations instead of the more credible eighteen generations in 1 Chronicles.
Question:
Why would Matthew omitt these four names as these were prominemt names of monarchs in Jewish history?
Well it is clear that Matthew was alluding to the name David in Hebrew which is fourteen also in Jewish numerology represents the number seven, which symbolises perfection and covenant. So inorder for him to do this he had to rely on the method of omission to embellish his claim.
Not only did Matthew omitted names but made mistakes that would only dampen the authenticity of his claim and question the central tenets of the church. It is obvious that Matthew wanted to erase the name Jeconiah out of the list as Jeconiah was cursed by the Prophet Jeremiah for his petulant and aversive ways and therefore cursed him in public conceding that none of his descendants would rule over the jewish people on the throne of David. (Jeremiah 22:30). We know the curse was lifted afterwards when Jeconiah repented but we also know that none of his descendants ever sat on the throne of David. His successor was his uncle Zedekiah who took over and perpetuated the house of David. Therefore, Jesus is of the cursed ancestry of Jeconiah who we know none of his descendants sat on the thrown of David therefore Jesus forfeits his eligibilty as the messiah and disqualifies his ancestral lineage to the House of David and tribe of Judah. The arguement that jesus could trace his lineage through mary is also untenable as we know through Jewish tradition a person's tribal identity is only through their father never their mother. In fact tje genealogy presented in Matthew is really of Joseph and not of Jesus as he was not the birth son of Joseph. So it also at best is irrelevant to support the claim of the church of jesus as messiah and of the house of David.
Curse was never lifted when he repented. That and Joseph being a step father.
Very interesting stuff. So then it should be very obvious to all that this genealogy is a literary invention, then.
Incidentally, I notice you say "Joseph the father of Jesus", which I suppose is another huge hint that this is a made up genealogy, since GMatt itself goes on to state categorically that Joseph is *not* the father of Jesus.
Also how does this line up with the equally fantastical genealogy given in GLuke?
Trying to wrap my head around this, because the bible is supposed to be 100% correct and true... I am struggling.
@@heinzerbrew this is why Christians don't *really* want you reading the bible, except certain very selective single verses. It falls apart the more you look at it.
One very humorous example for me was that Judas Iscariot kills himself TWICE in the new testament, in two completely different ways!
Matthew traces the lineage of Jesus through Joseph as does Luke. But Joseph WAS NOT the father of Jesus.
How do I know?
Because Mary was A VIRGIN when she gave birth to Jesus.
That's pretty hard to overlook
@Larry Cavalli I was really just trying to point out the contradiction. You can't simultaneously claim that Mary was a virgin AND give Jesus Joseph's bloodline
You can in a legal sense
@@margaretrutherford5548 Indeed! Moses and Joshua (via Divine approval) legislate the exception to the Inheritance Law to allow the daughters of Zelophahad to inherit and retain their father's land as long as they marry within their own tribe, the prospective husband (son-in-law) to be legally adopted by the daughters' father into real sonship and heirship into his family line and heirship.
See Numbers 27:11 and Joshua 17:3-6, as well as Ezra 2:61, Nehemia 7:63, Numbers 32:11, 1 Chronicles 2:21..., 34....
God's blood curse upon Jeconiah (Jehoiachin) halts the royal blood process (God had had enough with the wicked series of kings!>> Exile!), which all the more requires the case for a true Virgin to arrive to give birth to the Christ, God Incarnate, Immanuel ("God With Us"), the Immaculate Conception (Isaiah's prophecy 7:14, Matthew 1:18-25). This was God's plan.
By Mary's father could his son-in-law Joseph be adopted into a legal heirship, sonship. And Joseph is the legally adoptive father of Jesus (Immanuel Messiah).
It is upon this lawful exception that the Messianic line can hang. There are several other OT events and human actions and needs through which God was directing and governing His protection over the promised Seed to come...
Only by the power of the Holy Spirit was the prophesied Seed (Messiah Christ Jesus) (Genesis 3:15) to come able to pull through those bleakest, thinnest hours of scriptural history -- and there were many such hours! -- as Satan like a roaring lion would throughout the OT and pre-resurrection/ascension NT ceaselessly pursue at the heel to devour the Seed. BUT Satan's head will ultimately be crushed (The Day of the Lord's Judgment during His Second Coming), while Messiah's heel would be bruised (at the Cross) yet only to rise again to life 3 days after and to ascend to His heavenly throne as Victor-King-Priest. Christ Jesus will return again in the future as the Righteous Judge and Warrior-King over all Creation, as also frequently prophesied throughout the Bible. (Will He find Faith on the Earth that is watching and waiting for Him?)
Byzantine says 'Asa' Alexandrian says 'Asaph'.
like the white board way to study
This is false. When you count matthew's lineage of Jesus you will count 41 names insted of 42. This is because joseph in the matthew explained lineage is not the Joseph father of Jesus. It is Joseoh father of Mary. So the list finishes with Jacob,Joseph, MARY anf then Jesus to for the 14th name. There was a mistake after the 1500 AD translation from Hebrew to Greek. Matthew gave the true bloodline of Jesus thru the family of Mary and Gkd made sure that even who adopted Jesus ALSO came from the lineage of Judah thru David's other son Nathan. But Jesus had to come from Solomon line because it was Solomon who build the temple for Yahweh and not Nathan.
My undersatnding is that Matthew brings out the four women in the lineage because of the compromising situation each was in, of which Mary herself would be in. I note you say nothing about the 14 generations from captivity to Jesus, yet you seem to annotate on your list that both Joseph and Mary are counted to resolve the generation issue. But in reality, Joseph is Mary's FATHER and such does infact add a true generation to fix the 14 name discrepancy. It is now known and documented that Matthew 1:16 has a scribal error and should read “Joseph FATHER of Mary”.
you should have said "Carrots" top or diamonds
Mathew Chapter 1 has a double check within to spy out any tampering. "Verse 1:17, So all the generations from Abraham to David are fourteen generations; and from David until the carrying away into Babylon are fourteen generations; and from the carrying away into Babylon unto Christ are fourteen generations." So why is it that Mathew chapter 1 has two sets of fourteen generations and the last set is only thirteen generations? Who is missing? The answer lays within the re-discovered ancient Manuscripts of Hebrew Mathew. Yes contrary to Seminary tradition that the Jewish Apostles wrote their Gospels in Greek. (Constantine removed all things Jewish from Christianity and Paganized it into a state/religion) This re-discovered evidence has shown that the Gospels were most likely originally written in Hebrew. Hebrew Mathew solves this ancient mystery of the missing ancestry by three sets of fourteen generations. Mariam's Fathers name was Joseph and Mariam was betrothed to Joseph. Joseph was as common a name then as it is now.
The discomfort people feel toward Matthew ch.1 is very revealing. Why? Because if you love the scriptures, and have invested the time to internalize the scriptures, Matt. Ch.1 is a list of old familiar family names. A fun chapter- like if all your favorite aunts and uncles were listed. But, If you are quasi-biblically illiterate, of course the names are unfamiar and strange.
Matt
Ch.1? A litmus test.
So... in one translation he is a descendant of a king, but in another, it is a poet? and it isn't even the same person? How is this a good thing?
LOL it depends on what you mean by "good." This isn't journalism: it was written and arranged with rhetorical purpose.
@@OverviewBible Thanks for the reply, I honestly couldn't figure out if you were an atheist or a Christian. You seemed so excited that Matthew was making false claims in order to tell a good story.
I am very troubled. I feel like I can't trust anything in the book of Mathew. Jesus comes off as a real jerk in Mathew, so maybe he was using literary license on that too... hopefully.
I have been told I have to believe the bible is word-for-word accurate, and yet your video seems to prove it isn't.
Again, this really depends on what you mean by "false" and "accurate." The ancients weren't writing for modern audiences, so it's not really fair to hold them to modern scrutiny without accounting for the context in which they were written.
Matthew wasn't adjusting the genealogy to deceive his audience--the books of Kings and Chronicles (which include the traditional lineage that was preserved from Abraham to Zerubbabel) were available to check against. He was telling a story and using literary devices that were acceptable during his time.
The same thing happens today. For example, the Broadway musical _Hamilton_ tells the story of a US historical figure, partially so that more people will remember his legacy. But in telling this story, Lin Manuel Miranda (the writer) deviates from historical events, bending history to fit the narrative. Anyone can read the source material and see where the musical deviates from the actual historical accounts. Miranda knows this. He's not trying to fool anybody. He's just telling the story he wants to tell, and uses tools (including creative liberties) that are acceptable in his context.
Is _Hamilton_ 100% historically accurate? No. But it's not a history textbook. It's a musical written with a rhetorical agenda. (And even given its inaccuracies, it did raise the level of historical literacy among musical theatre fans in the US.)
It might help to keep this in mind when thinking about the gospels. All of them were written to make rhetorical points; they weren't written as objective/neutral historical accounts.
I understand that many people are told they need to believe the Bible is "word-for-word accurate," as you say. But the Bible does not even make these claims about itself. It can't--it was assembled and arranged into the canons we know hundreds of years after all the individual books of the Bible were written.
I hope this is helpful!
@@OverviewBible Please be patient with me. Thank you for explaining this perspective. Usually, when I point out inaccuracies in the bible I get told that we have to take it on faith, or that the devil is attacking me.
Often, I hear preachers cherry-pick a few verses in the bible to prove their point, but then ignore the other verses that disagree because those verses aren't intended to be taken literally. Often it is the financial messages.
Please, if you know of some sources that explain this stuff I need them. My brain is very literal, very binary, true/false and I struggle with the bible because of this. Mainly because I have been told often that I have to believe it is word-for-word accurate, not just simply god-inspired.
I'm told Pete Enns' book, "The Bible Tells Me So," has helped some folks whose difficulties with the Bible are similar to those you've expressed.
But it sounds like you might want to ask yourself (if you haven't already) why you think these issues are important. There is a very, very wide range of approaches to the Bible within orthodox/traditional Christianity--your best bet might be to examine why your teachers believe what they believe in particular. Where did the doctrines come from? What social events brought them forth? What are the demonstrable benefits to you and to the world for seeing the Bible this way?
So this is why life the universe and everything is 42 😅
Can you count? Have you ever counted all the names? There are 14, 14 and 13!! Not 14 in the English translated from the Greek. You don't ever address that "error".
I've read six explanations proffered for this:
1. Mary was intended to be considered a generation to herself.
2. Jesus represents two generations: one for his stint in Galilee and Judea, and the final generation being the Church (in other words, it was left open-ended intentionally).
3. A generation was somehow lost in the editing/preservation process.
4. Thirteen was "close enough" to fourteen to make the author's point. By the third set of "fourteens," the author has already skipped several generations recorded in the Hebrew Bible-so any notion that this is meant to be a precise and accurate genealogy should have been thrown out the window by now.
6. Christians are simply incapable of basic arithmetic. 😝
@@OverviewBible You missed one. The right one. Which you (and everyone) doesn't get in the Greek translation.
Did you have to use terminology “Easter eggs”? Cringe.
Otherwise-thanks for the teaching.
Does 'nuggets' work for you?
I don’t buy the name changes as being a wink to other parts of the Bible. Why mention Asaph who wrote several psalms when you already have David who wrote over 50? If you’re writing the genealogy to prove Jesus was connected to David why would you intentionally write certain names wrong?
It sounds like you might be imposing some assumptions on the author of Matthew here. To say using "Asaph" instead of "Asa" is "wrong" blocks you from considering why the author made that rhetorical choice. And to say "why mention Asaph when you already mentioned David" implies an assumed checkbox mentality for the author-but there's no reason to assume that the author was thinking this way.
The fact is that the names in Matthew's genealogy do not match the names in the (well-documented at the time) lineage of Jerusalem's kings, and in two cases inserts names that are more closely associated with the prophets and writings portions of the Hebrew Bible (see more on this here: overviewbible.com/tanakh/). Given the author's penchant for making callbacks to the Hebrew Bible (see overviewbible.com/matthew/ for details), these literary choices in the genealogy make sense.
I wouldn't say the genealogy is there to "prove" Jesus' connection to David-and I'd submit the creative liberties the author takes in the genealogy as evidence of this. Matthew was written for first-century Christians: they already accepted Jesus as the Messiah. Rather, it's a means of framing the story and discourses that follow. =)
Jeffrey thanks for you great study here but if Asaph and Amos were not in the lineage of King David they have no place in the genealogy of Messiah Jesus. I have searched the internet and UA-cam for a consensus of the genealogies in Matthew and Luke as to why they are so different. There is no consensus at all. There is a real need here to identify which of these belongs to Joseph and which belongs to Mary. Bloodlines are very important in the Bible. Above all Joseph had no biological part in the Messiah only through adoption. Mary is the biological link to Messiah’s right to the throne of David. I think this is one of those mysteries that we must take on faith. This study exhausted and frustrated me. It definitely taught me that in spite of some very evil people in your family tree, great good and blessings can and do happen when God is working together for good in His image bearers. All people are fallen creatures in need of redemption by our savior Jesus, regardless of who their ancestors were.
What is the idea that you are taking on faith? Do you mean just the concept that Jesus has the correct bloodline? Or is it that it seems Mathew made up some stuff? I am asking because I am just now learning about this topic.
I am very grateful for your explanation because moslems claims that Jesus was a Jew therefore you Christians are outsiders can be challenged. A harlots who believed is also in the genealogy. Grace and pardon in the genealogy. God is inclusive. Ruth the Moabìte birthed our Patriach Obed.
Yet, that geneology is adopted....go to Luke for geneology of Mary, which comes through Nathan, David's high priest son. Also, King Coniah or Jechonias was curse and his children removed by God (Jeremiah 22:30) but, later God gives blessing to the grandchild Zerubbabel (Haggai 2:23). Some of the spelling of the names are a little different from translation. Anyhow, Jesus either by adoption or from Mary's side had complete authority and right to be King. One other thing, remember, in Numbers 27:3-7 a Woman comes to Moses and Aaron asking about inheritance, she has no brother and her father has died, she wants her Father's inheritance. Moses and Aaron ask God and God gives Women full inheritance. Mary either was a only child or maybe had a younger sister, not really sure but I believe she was entitled to her Father's inheritance. Amen
@Larry Cavalli Luke chapter 3, but one thing we have to remember, the Jews kept a record of geneology knowing how important it is/was. During the Roman war of 0070 AD the records were destroyed. We only have Luke's account of Mary's ancestors. Now Mary was either an only child or had a younger sister which means, she is entitled to her father's (Heli which could be spelled Eli) inheritance. Two witnesses to be true.....Jesus is covered by both his parents, stepfather and mother!! Amen
@Larry Cavalli turn to Matthew Chapter 1 Joseph Geneology and start from David then Solomon then Rehoboam and so on..now Luke goes from David to Nathan then Mattatha and so on. So, you have to compare to 1 Chronicles chapter 3....follow the genealogical order. Remember, Luke had access to this information, it was kept and recorded but destroyed during the war. Another important fact is, not one rabbi denied Jesus was by birthright from the line of David, he was rightly the King and High Priest! I use to think the same way you do until I really started researching it and most people don't even know. There are so many secrets in the bible, I learn something new everyday! Amen! Look up the word Bereshit but before you do that turn to Isaiah 46:10, after that find out what 2701 means in respect to bereshit. I have one more for you, King David's father is Jesse....his grandfather is Obed and his greatgrandfather is Boaz, now Boaz's wife is Ruth (she has a book in old testament) so, look up the secret meaning to Genesis 38 which was penned nearly 500 years before David by Moses. Enjoy! Amen
@Larry Cavalli not really many errors......when you look at it, 40 authors and nearly 2,000 years. It's amazing that all of them point to the same thing, the Messiah. Can you point out 2 or 3 errors and I'll try and find the answer. Have you looked at the numbering system in the original language? I find it incredible....anyhow, please give me the errors and I will find the answers.
@Larry Cavalli contradictions hmmm please show me a few, thank you! Oh! Have you read the bible? You know, the bible points out many future things that will and did happen. Daniel's 70 weeks being the greatest of them all. Sounds to me, you might be sceptical of God, are you?
@Larry Cavalli I had the same question and I needed answers!! But, to believe life started from a single cell organism that magically appear one day, and earth out of all the planets somehow happen to have perfect climate and abundant supply of water....that's like saying a house or building made itself. Something created it, there is an architect! But, how do we prove we have a creator? So, Around the same time the computers and internet came out, I found out about the Golden Ratio...what is this magical number? A blueprint or thumbprint, a building block! Now, Albert Einstein believe the universe has always been the same never changing but he proved himself wrong and he didn't like that, he said our universe was expanding, growing so there must have been a beginning. So, what is this "God Particle" and how does it relate to space, earth and time? My friend, I am not the guy to explain this but I have watched many videos on youtube, and from what I have seen, heard and learned, we have a creator and the brightest look at page 1 from the bible and agree, it explains creation very well. I call the creator God, it seems to fit. I'm going to look up a few videos for you that seem to explain thing much better than I do. Anyhow, do you have children? And what is your age if you don't mind me asking.
from carrying any to Babylon to Jesus if you count there are 13 not 14. Jesus has 2 generations.
The only way you can get 14 generations in 1:17 is to say that 16 is a misprint and should say “Jacob begat Joseph the FATHER of Mary, of whom was born Jesus. Then Mary and Joseph (husband) are both descendants of David. But Matthew shows the lineage from David’s son Solomon. And in Luke it’s the lineage from David’s son Nathan. Mary’s father was named Joseph too. Doesn’t that make more senseless? Then we get 14.
Psalm 147/19/20 he show his words to Jacob his statutes and judgments to Israel for he has not dealt with any other nation and for his judgments they have not known according to the bible he show his words statutes and judgments to Israel never mention no other nation and for his judgments they have not known them according to the bible the most high never dealt with any other nation and for his judgments they have not known so what would a nation that the most high never dealt with would know his word

5 And Salmah fathered Boaz from Racháv. {Ruth 4:21}
And Boaz fathered Ovéd from Ruth. {1 Chron 2:12}
And Ovéd fathered Yishái. {Luke 3:32}
6 And Yishái fathered David the King. {1 Sam 17:12}
And King David fathered Solomon from Bathsheba, which was the wife of Uriah. {1 Chron 3:5}
7 ¶ And Solomon fathered Rehav'am. {1 Kings 11:43}
And Rehav'am fathered Abijah. {1 Kings 14:31}
And Abijah fathered Assa. {1 Chron 3:10}
8 And Assa fathered Yehoshafat. {1 Kings 15:24}
And Yehoshafat fathered Jehoram. {1 Chron 3:11}
And Jehoram descended Uzziyah. {2 Chron 26:1}
9 And Uzziyah fathered Yotam. {2 Chron 26:21}
And Yotam fathered Ahaz. {2 Kings 16:1}
And Ahaz fathered Hezekiah. {2 Chron 28:27}
10 And Hezekiah fathered Manasseh. {2 Kings 20:21}
And Manasseh fathered Amon. {2 Chron 33:20}
And Amon fathered Josiah. {2 Kings 21:26}
11 And Josiah descended Jeconiah & his brothers, about the time they were under the captivity
of Babylon. {Jer 27:20}
12 Then after their alienation in Babylon:
Jeconiah fathered She'alti'el. {1 Chron 3:17}
¶ And She'alti'el fathered Zerubbabel. {Neh 12:1}
13 And Zerubbabel descended Abihud. {Hag 1:1}
And Abihud descended Eliakim.
And Eliakim descended Azor.
14 And Azor descended Zadok.
And Zadok descended JoAchim.
And JoAchim descended Elihud.
15 And Elihud descended El'azár.
And El'azár descended Matthan.
And Matthan fathered Jacob. {Luke 3:24}
16 And Jacob fathered Joseph the guardian of Mary, which gave birth to JESUS, whom is
entitled the Messiah. {John 6:42}
17 Thus all the generations, from Abraham to David, were fourteen generations. And from David
until they were captured into Babylon, fourteen generations. And after they were held captive in
Babylon unto CHRIST, are fourteen generations.
18 Now the genesis of CHRIST JESUS begins like this: After the betrothment of his mother
Mary with Joseph, before either of them could have met, she was found to be carrying in the
womb, from the sacred GHOST.
19 But because her fiancé, Joseph, was kindhearted & loathed to shame her in public, he
preferred to have her disowned in a private manner.
20 But as he slept on these thoughts, behold! The Angel of our Lord appeared unto him in a
dream, saying: Joseph, thou son of David, do not dread to receive Mary as your bride; in truth
the one who grows in her, is from the sacred GHOST.
21 And she shall labor & deliver a son, and thou wilt call his name JESUS, since he shall save
his citizens from their flaws.
22 Now, all this came to fruition, to complete what was spoken through the Prophet by the
LORD, foretelling:
23 Behold! A Virgin shall bear in the womb & bring forth a son; and they will call his name
IMMANUEL, which being translated is: The GOD among us.
24 And when Joseph awoke out of bed, he did as the Angel of our Lord had bidden him, and
accepted Mary as his wife.
25 But he acquainted among her not, till she had brought forth her firstborn son; and she gave
him the name JESUS. {Luke 1:31}
I thought David and Bathsheba had a child but God killed it because of their SIN. News to me that Solomon was a fruit of adultry!

First off you are completely wrong about Jesus geology of Jesus in the gospel of Matthew! It was is the geology of Joseph Mary husband although Joseph is of the lineage of Judah Jesus is in the book of Luke. Chapter 3. Along with his mother Mary ! And with his cousin John the Baptist his uncle ZACKRIOUS the priest. And his wife of the geology of Aaron the first Chief priest of Israel. ! Why? Because Elizabeth mother and Mary mother are sisters both of tribe of Levi with. Mary father heli from the king line of Judah making Jesus king line and The priest line making him king of kings Lord' of Lords! Also Jesus is from the line of Jessie obed Jessie. Father' Boaz the great grandfather of Jessie. And Ruth. His grandmother and Naomi. The pleasant one. Boaz also being the Kingman REEDERMER Naomi being of the seed of Abraham and his nephew lot who is the father of mohab. Naomi married a descendent of mohab and Ruth married one of the son's. Making Ruth the daughter -in-law to Naomi and is also part of Jesus geology and when Naomi and Ruth arrived where Boaz lived and Ruth directed by God to the land that boaZ owned she Ruth began gleeming what was left of the barely harvest getting it for her and her mother-in-law Naomi because it was a famine where they came from. And Boaz knew Naomi. For he was the Kingman REEDERMER for her as well Boaz asked who was the lady trying to get some of the left over barely his workers told him get name is Ruth the mohabite. Meaning sh too is Boaz Kingman REEDERMER. boaZ told his workers do not bother her let her eat at your table for lunch and dinner let her take what she needs to feed her and Naomi this also found in the book of Ruth chapters 3&4. And when a man came to marry Ruth. He didn't have the correct lineage. Changed his mind and Boaz took Ruth for his wife and the result being a son name of obed which is the Great grand father of David and Nathan his son in the lineage of Jesus Christ!
