The Bible does not mention a Joachim.

The only place Joachim is mentioned as the father of Mary is in the Infancy Gospel of James. Although the Infancy Gospel of James is non-canonical, this became Christian tradition. Since the genealogies of Jesus in Matthew and Luke name two different fathers for Joseph, theologians since the eighth century have argued that the genealogy in Luke is actually the family tree of Mary and that Heli is her father, so the Christian Church is now more ambiguous about the existence of Saint Joachim. Joachim continues to be the preference of Catholics as the father of Mary, but this is not a universal assumption even among Catholics.

Who was Hannah the mother of in the bible?

The fact that Matthew and Luke do not agree as to the name of Joseph's father means that they really did not even have this information. Matthew says that Joseph's father was called Jacob, while Luke says Heli. The Bible does not talk about Joseph's mother.Other considerations:There were 12 different Joseph's in the Bible.I believe the question may be in reference to the first notable one was Joseph, the son of Jacob and Rachel.See attached links for more information on Josephs' in the Bible.

How many sets of twins found in Bible history?

There are two set's of twins mentioned in the bible and I'm sure this has been answered before. We have Esau and Jacob, and Tamar's twins Zeresh and Pharez. However, there is sketchy talk of Thomas (a disciple of Jesus) being a twin for the meaning of his name. there is also talk of Joseph's sons being twins but i doubt it for scripture would have said so.


Mary husband is he the same Joseph that was sold?

Oh, what a lovely question! It sounds like you're curious about Mary and Joseph from the Bible. Yes, Mary's husband is indeed Joseph, the same Joseph who was sold into slavery by his brothers in the Old Testament. It's wonderful to see your interest in their story, and I encourage you to explore more about their journey and the lessons we can learn from it.
