Matthew's Gospel has sixteen verses on the genealogy of Jesus, back through Joseph and his father Jacob to Abraham. Then a seventeenth verse explains how this genealogy is propitious, as it consists of three groups of exactly fourteen ancestors. 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.
Luke's Gospel also has sixteen verses on the genealogy of Jesus, back through Joseph and his father Heli all the way to Adam. The author does not highlight the numerology as does the author of Matthew, but this genealogy is equally propitious, as it has great men occurring in multiples of seven generations. To do this, he had to insert his own fictitious people into the Old Testament list: Kainan at 13; Admin at 28.
New Testament scholars say that neither genealogy is likely to be historical.

∙ 9y agoMatthew 1, which contains the genealogy of Jesus' adoptive father Joseph-son of Jacob (verse 16)-from David's son Solomon. On the other hand, Luke 3, which lists the genealogy from David's son Nathan, might also seem to be the family record of Joseph-but he is here listed as being the "son of Heli" (verse 23). A bit confusing in the English translations.

Who is the first person listed in the genealogy of Christ?
A:In the Bible, there are two genealogies of Jesus, or more accurately of Joseph, one in Matthew's Gospel and one in Luke's Gospel. Matthew 1:2 begins the genealogy with Abraham and verse 1:16 says that Joseph's father was called Jacob.Luke's genealogy works back from Jesus, with Luke 3:23 saying that, as was supposed, Jesus was the son of Joseph, the son of Heli. This genealogy then goes all the way back to the legendary Adam.

Luke traces Jesus' lineage back to Adam and shows how God's promises to Israel are fulfilled in Jesus but is this true?
If Luke's genealogy is true, then the Old Testament genealogy for David is in error, since Luke added two names into the list of David's ancestors, that are not in the Old Testament - Admin and Kainan.Luke shows that God's promise was fulfilled in Jesus because great men occurred in multiples of 7 generations starting from Adam, with: Enoch at 7; Abraham at 21; David at 35; Jesus at 77 - this is why he had to alter the original Old Testament genealogy, which would not have given this result.

Was Jesus Christ a decendant of abel?
No. Abel was killed by Cain, his brother and so Adam and Eve had another son by the name of Seth. This is the line of Jesus. The genealogy that names Seth as a very early ancestor of Jesus can be found in Luke 3:23-38.
Why is Christ's genealogy important?
A:To the authors of Matthew and Luke, the genealogy of Jesus was important because it demonstrated that Jesus was descended from King David, as the first-century Jews expected their Messiah would be. It was, of course, expected by both authors that the virgin birth be overlooked, since this would seem to make the genealogy meaningless.Both authors also believed that the genealogy was important because numerology proved that Jesus was destined for greatness - see, for example Matthew 1:17, which explains that there are fourteen generations from Abraham to David, fourteen more until the carrying away to Babylon and then fourteen to Jesus. To do this, Matthew has 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.Luke's Gospel also has sixteen verses on the genealogy of Jesus, back through Joseph and his father Heli all the way to Adam. The author does not highlight the numerology as does the author of Matthew, but this genealogy is equally propitious, as it has great men occurring in multiples of seven generations. To do this, he had to insert his own fictitious people into the Old Testament list: Kainan at 13; Admin at 28.
