| GENEALOGY OF JOSEPH NOT THE GENEALOGY OF CHRIST IS GIVEN. MATTHEW 1:1 The book of the generation of Jesus Christ, the son of David, the son of Abraham. At the end of this line of descendants, Joseph, NOT Christ is identified. Joseph is the descendant traced to David and of course Joseph is NOT the father of Christ. MATTHEW 1:16 Jacob fathered Joseph the husband of Mary, of whom was born Jesus. LUKE 3:23 Jesus himself ... being (as was supposed) the son of Joseph . People thought Joseph was the father of Christ and the genealogy of Joseph is given. Luke and Matthew genealogies are those of Joseph, NOT Christ. There is NO genealogy of Mary . MARY & COUSIN ELIZABETH LUKE 1:5 There was a priest named Zacharias and his wife was of the daughters of Aaron, and her name was Elisabeth. ( Elisabeth was of the tribe of Levites, she is the cousin of Mary. Joseph is not the father of Christ and Mary is only tied into the tribe of Levi [ not Judah] )
LUKE 1:6 Zacharias and Elisabeth were righteous before God, walking in all the commandments and ordinances of the Lord blameless. LUKE 1:7 They had no child and were well stricken in years. LUKE 1:8 While he executed the priest's office in the order of his course, ( Zacharias executed the priest's office, he too was a Levite ) Adam Seth Enos Cainan Mahalaleel Jared Enoch Methuselah Lamech Noah Shem Arphaxad Salah Eber Peleg Reu Serug Nahor Terah Abraham Isaac Jacob Judah Pharez Hezron Ram Amminadab Nahshon Salmon Boaz Obed Jesse David Nathan Mattiatha Menan Eliakim Jonan Joseph Juda Simeon Levi Matthat Jurim Eliezer Jose Er Elmodam Cosam Addi Melchi Neri Salathiel Zorobabel Rhesa Joanna Juda Joseph Semei Mattahias Maath Nagge Esli Naum Amos Mattathias Joseph Janna Melchi Levi Mathat Heli Mary Jesus JESUS CHRIST IS THE SON OF GOD. HE LIVED A SINLESS LIFE, HE DIED TO PAY FOR OUR SINS. HE ROSE FROM THE GRAVE ON THE THIRD DAY, DEFEATING HELL, DEATH AND THE GRAVE , FOR OUR SAKES. RECEIVE JESUS CHRIST AND ACCEPT HIM TODAY.
