Both Matthew and Luke provide genealogies back through Jesus' earthly father Joseph, showing that Zorobabel, son of Salathiel, and King David were legal ancestors of Jesus. Zorobabel was the great leader who led the Jews back from the Babylonian Exile, so descent from him would have been a sign of greatness. While Luke says that the father of Salathiel was called Neri, Matthew says that the father of Salathiel was called Jechonias. Jews also believed that the hoped-for messiah would be descended from David.
Matthew goes further than Luke, having Jesus and Zorobabel descended from David through the line of Judahite kings, while Luke has them descended from David through a line of commoners. Both mention the legendary patriarch, Abraham.
