Best Answer
AnswerThe Gospels of Matthew and Luke provide two quite different genealogies of Jesus, through his father, Joseph. Raymond E. Brown (An Introduction to the New Testament) says that neither genealogy is likely to be strictly true. Another problem is that Jesus is generally assumed to have been born by virgin birth, so that even if either one of these genealogies is true for Joseph, it would not be strictly true for Jesus.

Having said that, the two genealogies do claim in common that Jesus was descended from some illustrious people:

  1. Zorobabel, son of Salathiel
  2. King David
  3. Judah
  4. Jacob
  5. Isaac
  6. Abraham
