December 25,2022 Merry Christmas!
Christmas!The Birth of Jesus Advent has ended and the Old Testament prophecy has come true. This prophecy has been in the works now for over 1500 hundred years. As previously stated two different authors of New Testament writings suggest varying genealogies.Luke starts off with God Abraham to Joseph with no mention of women’s names along the way. Mathew’s version names 4 women before Mary. There is a suggestion naming these women recognizes a female aspect to Mary’s blood line. It should be noted that all that naming takes place before the exile into Babylon. It should also be noted that in Mathew version the father of Joseph is Jacob. In the Luke though the father of Joseph is listed as Heli but actually he was the Father in Law to Joseph. Heli was the Father of Mary. Luke later lists him as the Grandfather of Jesus. Add all these differences of Luke from Mathew version and you can see why Luke’s version of Jesus genealogy is deemed A Universal Interruption. Merry Christmas a
