The 'professional' definition of a generation seems to be 20 years although Relative Genetics uses 25 years. If we take the smaller number of 20 years then 2007 divided by 20 equals just over 100 generations.

Why did it take 42 generations for Jesus to come?
In Matthew's Gospel, there were: 14 generations from Abraham to David, inclusive; 14 generations from David to Josiah, inclusive; and 14 generations from Jechonias (son of Josiah) to Jesus, through Joseph. This is actually 41 generations from Abraham to Jesus, since David is counted twice. In Luke's Gospel, there were: 77 generations from Adam to Jesus, through Joseph. This included 55 generations from Abraham to Jesus, once again inclusive. Luke's Gospel had great men occur in multiples of 7 generations starting from Adam, with: Enoch at 7; Abraham at 21; David at 35; Jesus at 77. The reason it took exactly this many generations in each case was that each of the authors wished in his own way to prove, through numerology, that Jesus was destined for greatness. The number 7 was regarded as associated with greatness, and so therefore was the number 14. To do this, Matthew had to ignore three kings in the Old Testament and to count David twice. Using a different, but parallel genealogy, Luke had to insert his own fictitious people into the Old Testament list: Kainan at 13; Admin at 28.

What were the 14 generations of Jesus Christ?
AnswerThe authors of Matthew and Luke each wrote somewhat different genealogies of Jesus, through Joseph, back to the Old Testament figures. Each sought to use numerology to prove that Jesus was predestined to be great. Matthew demonstrated that there were 14 generations: from Abraham to David; from David to Josiah; from Josiah to Jesus. To do this, he had to ignore 3 kings in the Old Testament and have David in the preceding (as 14) and following (as 1) groups, but not so Josiah.
