What is the lineage of Jesus?

Answer 1

A:Matthew 1:16 says that Joseph, the husband of Mary, was the son of Jacob and the chapter gives the genealogy of Jesus through the male line, all the way back to Abraham. The key points are that he was descended from the great Zorobabel, son of Salathiel, and from King David. Compared to the Old Testament list, this genealogy omits Kings Jehoash, Amaziah and Uzziah because the author wished to use numerology to show that Jesus was destined for greatness, as we see in Matthew 1:17 which says that there were 14 generations from Abraham to David, 14 from David to the carrying away to Babylon and then 14 more generations to Jesus.

Luke 3:23 says that (as was supposed), Jesus was descended from Joseph, son of Heli. The remainder of Luke chapter 3 gives the genealogy of Jesus through the male line, all the way back to Adam. The key points are that he was descended from the great Zorobabel, son of Salathiel, and from King David. The genealogy purportedly demonstrates that Jesus was predestinated for greatness, as great men occurred in multiples of 7 generations starting from Adam, with: Enoch at 7, Abraham at 21, David at 35 and Jesus at 77. He also had other people called Joseph at 42 and 70 and a Jesus (Jose) at 49. To do this, he had to insert his own fictitious people into the Old Testament list: Kainan at 13 and Admin at 28.

Raymond E. Brown (An Introduction to the New Testament) dismisses both genealogies as unlikely.to be historically accurate.

Answer 3

Luke 3:23 says that (as was supposed), Jesus was descended from Joseph, son of Heli. The remainder of Luke chapter 3 gives the genealogy of Jesu through the male line, all the way back to Adam. The key points are that he was descended from the great Zorobabel, son of Salathiel, and from King David. The genealogy purportedly demonstrates that Jesus was predestinated for greatness, as great men occurred in multiples of 7 generations starting from Adam, with: Enoch at 7, Abraham at 21, David at 35 and Jesus at 77. He also had other people called Joseph at 42 and 70 and a Jesus (Jose) at 49. To do this, he had to insert his own fictitious people into the Old Testament list: Kainan at 13 and Admin at 28.

Answer 4

We have two genealogies of Jesus to choose from in the New Testament.

In Matthew chapter 1, we are told that Joseph's father was called Jacob and that he was descended from Zorobabel, who led the Jews back from the Babylonian Exile, and then all the kings of Judah, back to King David. Matthew 1:17 tells that there were 14 generations: from Abraham to David; from David to Josiah; from Josiah to Jesus. To do this, he had to omit three kings in the Old Testament and have David in the preceding (as 14) and following (as 1) groups, but not so Josiah. We have no possible way of verifying Matthew's list of Jesus' ancestors from the time of the Exile.

In Luke chapter 3, we are told that Joseph's father was called Heli (3:23) and that he was descended from Zorobabel, who led the Jews back from the Babylonian Exile, and then a line of commoners all the way back to King David and finally Adam. Luke had great men occur in multiples of seven generations starting from Adam, with: Enoch at 7; Abraham at 21; David at 35; Jesus at 77. He also had other men called Joseph at 42 and 70. To do this, he had to insert his own fictitious people into the Old Testament list: Kainan at 13; Admin at 28. Once again, we have no possible way of verifying Luke's list of Jesus' ancestors after King David.

Thus we have two family lines for Jesus, back through Joseph and the male line to King David. The Bible tells us nothing of Mary's ancestry, but a later Christian tradition says that her parents were called Joachim and Anne.

Answer 5

This is Christ's lineage from Adam. Christ's lineage ends with Him since he had no children. Also, this is taken from three different parts of the Bible. I used the New International Version.

Adam to Noah;

Genesis 5:3-32

3 When Adam had lived 130 years, he had a son in his own likeness, in his own image; and he named him Seth. 4 After Seth was born, Adam lived 800 years and had other sons and daughters. 5 Altogether, Adam lived a total of 930 years, and then he died.

6 When Seth had lived 105 years, he became the father[b] of Enosh. 7 After he became the father of Enosh, Seth lived 807 years and had other sons and daughters. 8 Altogether, Seth lived a total of 912 years, and then he died.

9 When Enosh had lived 90 years, he became the father of Kenan. 10 After he became the father of Kenan, Enosh lived 815 years and had other sons and daughters. 11 Altogether, Enosh lived a total of 905 years, and then he died.

12 When Kenan had lived 70 years, he became the father of Mahalalel. 13 After he became the father of Mahalalel, Kenan lived 840 years and had other sons and daughters. 14 Altogether, Kenan lived a total of 910 years, and then he died.

15 When Mahalalel had lived 65 years, he became the father of Jared. 16 After he became the father of Jared, Mahalalel lived 830 years and had other sons and daughters. 17 Altogether, Mahalalel lived a total of 895 years, and then he died.

18 When Jared had lived 162 years, he became the father of Enoch. 19 After he became the father of Enoch, Jared lived 800 years and had other sons and daughters. 20 Altogether, Jared lived a total of 962 years, and then he died.

21 When Enoch had lived 65 years, he became the father of Methuselah. 22 After he became the father of Methuselah, Enoch walked faithfully with God 300 years and had other sons and daughters. 23 Altogether, Enoch lived a total of 365 years. 24 Enoch walked faithfully with God; then he was no more, because God took him away.

25 When Methuselah had lived 187 years, he became the father of Lamech. 26 After he became the father of Lamech, Methuselah lived 782 years and had other sons and daughters. 27 Altogether, Methuselah lived a total of 969 years, and then he died.

28 When Lamech had lived 182 years, he had a son. 29 He named him Noah[c] and said, "He will comfort us in the labor and painful toil of our hands caused by the ground the LORD has cursed." 30 After Noah was born, Lamech lived 595 years and had other sons and daughters. 31 Altogether, Lamech lived a total of 777 years, and then he died.

32 After Noah was 500 years old, he became the father of Shem, Ham and Japheth.

Noah to Abraham;

Genesis 11:10-26

10 This is the account of Shem's family line.

Two years after the flood, when Shem was 100 years old, he became the father of Arphaxad. 11 And after he became the father of Arphaxad, Shem lived 500 years and had other sons and daughters.

12 When Arphaxad had lived 35 years, he became the father of Shelah. 13 And after he became the father of Shelah, Arphaxad lived 403 years and had other sons and daughters.

14 When Shelah had lived 30 years, he became the father of Eber. 15 And after he became the father of Eber, Shelah lived 403 years and had other sons and daughters.

16 When Eber had lived 34 years, he became the father of Peleg. 17 And after he became the father of Peleg, Eber lived 430 years and had other sons and daughters.

18 When Peleg had lived 30 years, he became the father of Reu. 19 And after he became the father of Reu, Peleg lived 209 years and had other sons and daughters.

20 When Reu had lived 32 years, he became the father of Serug. 21 And after he became the father of Serug, Reu lived 207 years and had other sons and daughters.

22 When Serug had lived 30 years, he became the father of Nahor. 23 And after he became the father of Nahor, Serug lived 200 years and had other sons and daughters.

24 When Nahor had lived 29 years, he became the father of Terah. 25 And after he became the father of Terah, Nahor lived 119 years and had other sons and daughters.

26 After Terah had lived 70 years, he became the father of Abram, Nahor and Haran.

Answer 6

A:The Bible does not mention the ancestry of Mary, but an early Christian tradition is that Mary's parents were called Joachim and Anne.

The influential New Testament scholar, Raymond E. Brown (An Introduction to the New Testament) canvasses the possibility of Luke's genealogy being that of Mary, but has little time for those who propose this "despite 3:23!" ('... Joseph, which was the son of Heli'). There is no scholarly support for interpreting Luke's genealogy as being through Mary.

Answer 7

The gospels do not record Jesus every marrying or having any relations with a woman. Thus, no descendants.

Answer 8

The genealogy of Jesus Christ is the line of people before he was born his family lineage
