The gospel author who traces Jesus' lineage back to Adam is Luke, in the Gospel of Luke chapter 3.
Luke's Gospel traces the lineage back to Adam.
I believe this was in the Geneology according to the gospel of Matthew.
Jesus' genealogy is traced through Joseph in the Bible because Joseph was Jesus' legal father and the one who raised Him as His own son. This lineage connects Jesus to the royal line of King David, fulfilling prophecies about the Messiah coming from David's descendants.
The Gospel of Matthew begins with a genealogy tracing Jesus' earthly lineage back to Abraham. It establishes Jesus' connection to the lineage of King David, fulfilling Old Testament prophecies about the Messiah coming from David's line. This genealogy sets the stage for Matthew to portray Jesus as the long-awaited fulfillment of Jewish expectations for a Messiah.
The lineage from Abraham to Jesus, as recorded in the Bible, is traced through Abraham's son Isaac, then through Isaac's son Jacob (also known as Israel), and continues through the tribe of Judah. From Judah's descendants, the lineage goes through King David and eventually leads to Jesus Christ, who is considered to be a descendant of King David.
The Gospel of Luke traces Jesus' lineage through the line of David all the way to the first man, Adam. (Luke 3.23-38)
Yes, Joseph is considered to be in the lineage of Jesus through his legal adoption of Jesus as his son.
Jesus genealogy to the patriarch's (David, Isaac & Abraham) was verified by two Gospel accounts, Luke 3:23-38 (for Mary's line) and Matthew 1:1-16 (for Joseph's line). Luke's account shows Jesus' natural lineage from King David Matthew's account shows Jesus' "legal" lineage through Joseph, his legally adopted father. It was very important that Jesus' lineage be confirmed as it was part of the prophecy that would identify him as the Messiah. In Mary's lineage, there is a Levi, but he was not a Levite.
Joseph is the husband of Mary and the earthly father figure of Jesus in the lineage of Jesus.
The concept of Jesus Christ as the Word of God was developed by the author of John's Gospel.
A:New Testament scholars have traced the stories of the mission of Jesus in the synoptic gospels and find they involve a period of apparently less than one year. This does not mean it could not actually have been somewhat longer, but this is all that is found. Luke's Gospel states that John the Baptist began to preach in 28 CE, thus suggesting that the crucifixion of Jesus could have been in 30 CE. John's Gospel makes it clear that, in the author's view, the mission of Jesus took three years, with Jesus going to Jerusalem for the annual Passover festivals. It can not be assumed that the author of John somehow knew more than the other authors, since it has now been established that the anonymous author of this gospel based it loosely on Luke's Gospel. Assuming Luke is correct on the date on which John began to preach, the crucifixion of Jesus in John's Gospel could not have been before about 33 CE.
The opening topic of the Gospel of Matthew in the Bible is the genealogy of Jesus, tracing his lineage back to Abraham. This genealogy highlights Jesus's connection to the promises made to Abraham and David in the Old Testament.
