The Genealogy of Jesus
Now I know that many of you will undoubtedly be true believers and will probably not be swayed, but let’s have a little faith shall we? The genealogy of Jesus is important to note because if he were not of the line of david then he would surely not be fulfilling the prophecy as put in Jeremiah 23 5 saying “Behold, the days come, saith the LORD, that I will raise unto David a righteous Branch, and a King shall reign and prosper, and shall execute judgment and justice in the earth.” Now, lets first put to rest that his line to David is seriously in danger according to the contradicting genealogies of Matthew 1 and Luke 3. Matthew has 28 generations and Luke has 43! you can’t call that a typo there’s seriously something smelly there… now lets also consider the fact that the names in the accounts have almost no names in common! read for yourself it’s despairingly inaccurate and it is really doubtful that each translation of the bible would correspond with this inaccuracy.
Oh and did I mention that both Matthew and Luke place Jesus’ adopted father Joseph as the descendant of David and if you’re a Christian you know that Mary conceived without Joseph’s help so, that would place him nowhere on the line of David because there was no donation from Joseph to Mary’s egg. So how you ask could he be of the line of David as prophesied in Jeremiah that’s a toughy… oh yeah it’s because he’s NOT OF THE LINE OF DAVID and the lineage connecting him to David is made up lies by disciples after the fact trying to make him fit into the prophecies of the old testament so, sorry your bible is either fallable and therefore not worth the read because you can’t be sure of the facts or because it’s all just fairy tales and old wives tales about things that either didn’t happen or happened and then were expounded upon to make them supernatural.
