Bible DISCOVERY 10: The LINEAGE of JESUS

 

Matthew 3:17 

King James Version

17 And lo a voice from heaven, 

saying, 

This is my beloved Son, 

in whom I am well pleased.


Ever wondered about the earth LINEAGE of JESUS?

Of course, SCRIPTURE is my ONLY reference:

Matthew 1:1-17 

King James Version

1 The book of the generation of Jesus Christ

the son of David, 

the son of Abraham.

2 Abraham begat Isaac; 

and Isaac begat Jacob; 

and Jacob begat Judas 

and his brethren;

3 And Judas begat Phares 

and Zara of Thamar; 

and Phares begat Esrom; 

and Esrom begat Aram;

4 And Aram begat Aminadab; 

and Aminadab begat Naasson; 

and Naasson begat Salmon;

5 And Salmon begat Booz of Rachab; 

and Booz begat Obed of Ruth; 

and Obed begat Jesse;

6 And Jesse begat David the king

and David the king begat Solomon of her 

that had been the wife of Urias;

7 And Solomon begat Roboam; 

and Roboam begat Abia; 

and Abia begat Asa;

8 And Asa begat Josaphat; 

and Josaphat begat Joram; 

and Joram begat Ozias;

9 And Ozias begat Joatham; 

and Joatham begat Achaz; 

and Achaz begat Ezekias;

10 And Ezekias begat Manasses; 

and Manasses begat Amon; 

and Amon begat Josias;

11 And Josias begat Jechonias 

and his brethren, 

about the time they were carried away to Babylon:

12 And after they were brought to Babylon, 

Jechonias begat Salathiel; 

and Salathiel begat Zorobabel;

13 And Zorobabel begat Abiud; 

and Abiud begat Eliakim; 

and Eliakim begat Azor;

14 And Azor begat Sadoc; 

and Sadoc begat Achim; 

and Achim begat Eliud;

15 And Eliud begat Eleazar; 

and Eleazar begat Matthan; 

and Matthan begat Jacob;

16 And Jacob begat Joseph 

the husband of Mary, 

of whom was born Jesus, 

who is called Christ.

17 So all the generations from Abraham to David 

are fourteen generations; 

and from David until the carrying away into Babylon 

are fourteen generations; 

and from the carrying away into Babylon unto Christ 

are fourteen generations.


Another amazing find is this verse:

1 Corinthians 15:45 

King James Version

45 And so it is written, 

The first man Adam was made a living soul

the last Adam was made a quickening spirit.



Who do you think was the "last Adam"? 

Listen to these verses, too:

2 Corinthians 5:21 

King James Version

21 For he hath made him to be sin for us, 

who knew no sin; 

that we might be made the righteousness of God 

in him.


John 3:16 

King James Version

16 For God so loved the world, 

that he gave his only begotten Son

that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, 

but have everlasting life.


Now, we know the earth "lineage" of JESUS, through his "father" Joseph, as well as the TRUE lineage of the LORD, being the "only begotten Son" of GOD.
