Lineage Jesus Christ
The Family Tree of Our Lord
Everybody knows Jesus and everybody knows what he stands for and what he did for all mankind. However, you have to consider how Jesus came to this world and who his ancestors were. Besides, without his ancestors, there wouldn’t even be any Jesus. You have to consider that you also have to be thankful for Jesus’ ancestors because without them, there wouldn’t be any savior at all and Christianity wouldn’t have existed.
Many people lives following the words of Christ and God. Many people have integrated the words of God through Christ in their life and let it serve as a daily guide on how to live their life. You have to consider that a lot of people follow Christ and even though Christ was born and spread the word of God thousands of years ago, Christianity and Jesus Christ are still alive in many people’s hearts.
So, where did Jesus come from and who were his ancestors? If you read the bible, you will know about Christ’s genealogy as stated in the book of Matthew and Luke. You will see that Jesus’ genealogy is traced back to King David and from there, it goes back to Abraham. However, there are significant differences about the genealogy of Christ between the two books. In Abraham up to King David, the genealogy is quite similar. However, starting from King David, Matthew and Luke explains the genealogy quite differently.
In Matthew, you will see that it will start with Solomon and the lineage will proceed to the kinds of Judah and includes Jeconiah. From there, it skipped up to four generations. You will also see that the genealogy of Jesus will state that Jesus Christ is the legal heir to the throne of Israel.
In Luke, you will see that it will also start with King David. However, it will proceed with the different son of King David. Instead of King Solomon as stated in Matthew, you will see that Luke states that the lineage of Jesus will start with King David’s other son named Nathan. The two different genealogies have been debated by historians and genealogists for years. Up until today, the debate is still on going and many theories and facts are coming out.
You will see that all will be quite confusing and very difficult to explain. There are quite a lot of people involved and some people even said that the genealogy of Jesus is quite impossible to interpret because of the contradicting genealogy written by Matthew and Luke.
However, no matter how complicated it is, you still have to consider that Jesus is still considered as the son of God. His mother, Mary is considered to give birth to Jesus Christ as a virgin. You have to consider that whatever the genealogy of Jesus is, he is still considered to be the savior of man.
If you like to see more of Jesus’ genealogy, you can read the Bible from the Gospels, Matthew 1:2-16 and Luke 3:23-38. You can have your own theories but at the end, Jesus will still be considered as the savior of man.

Bible question regarding the family lineage of Christ…?
Can someone tell me, is the lineage given in the Bible about Jesus, such as going back to King David, is that family lineage to Mary? or to Joseph? I am watching a documentary saying that the lineage is to Mary. But, I remember hearing it was to Joseph. So, can anyone help clarify this for me? Thank you, and please, only relevant answers.
Yes, one person said it is weird to give the lineage of Jesus as Joseph’s lineage, but Jesus is blood descendent of Mary – NOT Joseph. So wouldn’t Mary’s lineage be the most important?
1 is Mary and 1 is Joseph (there are two)
To start with, here’s the verse that introduces the Lord’s genealogy as recorded in Luke chapter 3…
Now Jesus Himself began His ministry at about thirty years of age, being (as was supposed) the son of Joseph, the son of Heli Luke 3.23
In Bible times, genealogies were recorded under the MALE line only…
That is, a man’s line of descent was exclusively determined by his male descendents.
If a man’s children consisted solely of daughters (NO sons), it was a real crisis. In a sense it was viewed as the END of that man’s family line, so far as it pertained to him.
Accordingly, whenever a family happened to end with a daughter, instead of naming her in the geneology, they would insert the name of her husband.
Thus, the daughter’s husband would be recorded as the son of him who was, in reality, the husband’s father-in-law.
Heli’s line ended with his daughter, Mary (the mother of Jesus). Accordingly, Mary’s husband, Joseph, was recorded as Heli’s son in the genealogical records for the family of Heli. This was done so that Heli’s line of descent would not end.
The two sons-in-law who are to be noticed in the genealogy in Luke chapter 3 are…
Joseph the son-in-law of Heli, whose own father was Jacob (Mt 1:16)
Salathiel, the son-in-law of Neri, whose own father was Jechonias (1 Chr 3:17; Mt 1:12).
Joseph, son of Jacob, according to Matthew, was son-in-law of Heli, according to Luke.
Salathiel, son of Jechonias, according to 1 Chronicles, was son-in-law of Neri, according to Matthew.
Mary therefore was the daughter of Heli (so called by abbreviation for Heliachim, which is the same in Hebrew with Joachim).
Joseph, son of Jacob, and Mary, daughter of Heli were of the same family: both came from Zerubbabel; Joseph from Abiud, Zerubbabel’s eldest son (Mt. 1:13), and Mary by Rhesa, Zerubbabel’s youngest son (Luke 3:27).
In 2 Samuel 7.12-13, God promised King David that a blood descendent of King David’s would one day rule from David’s throne. God further promised David that this descendent would rule over His kingdom forever.
Of course we now know that it was Jesus Christ who God sent to rule forever from David’s throne. (Luke 1.32)
To rule as King from David’s throne, Jesus Christ HAD to meet TWO REQUIREMENTS as follows:
a) Jesus had to be a blood descendent of David, AND
b) Jesus had to be LEGALLY entitled to sit on David’s throne.
God had a problem in having Jesus meet the second requirement named above. Here are the reasons:
a) David had many children, but only one of those children became king after David died. The son who became king was Solomon.
b) To be LEGALLY entitled to sit on David’s throne, a person had to be a descendent of David through the kingly line of David’s descendants. The kingly line of David’s descendents began with King Solomon.
c) One of the kings who came along many years after David died was King Jeconiah (also called Coniah, and Jehoiahchin). King Jeconiah was, of course, a descendent of King Solomon and thus was in the kingly line of David. King Jeconiah did a great sin against God. Accordingly, God ordained that NO blood descendent of King Jeconiah would ever again sit on David’s throne. (Jeremiah 22.30)
d) Because of what God said in Jeremiah 22.30, Jesus could NOT be a blood descendent of King Jeconiah. This meant that Jesus could not be a blood descendent in the KINGLY line of King David.
e) In summary, God’s problem was this. To keep God’s promise to David (2 Samuel 7.12-13) Jesus had to meet the following REQUIREMENTS:
1) Jesus had to be a blood descendent of King David, AND
2) Jesus had to be LEGALLY entitled to the throne, BUT
3) Jesus must not be a blood descendent through David’s kingly line, because Jesus must NOT be a blood descendent of King Jeconiah (Jeremiah 22.30).
God’s solution to the problem was as follows:
a) Among all of King David’s children were two sons: Solomon and Nathan (2 Samuel 5.13-14).
b) Solomon was in the kingly line. Nathan was not.
c) Accordingly, anyone descended from Nathan would be a blood descendent of King David but would NOT be legally entitled to David’s throne.
d) As explained in Matthew chapter 1, Joseph was legally the father of Jesus but he was NOT physically the father of Jesus, because Jesus was born of a virgin named Mary. Mary, of course, became Joseph’s wife.
e) Matthew 1.1-17 gives the LEGAL geneology of Jesus Christ through His legal father, Joseph. Note that this geneology is fully within the kingly line of David (Mt 1.1), including King Solomon (Mt 1.6) and King Jeconiah (Mt 1.11).
f) Therefore, since Jesus was legally Joseph’s son, and since Joseph was in the kingly line, Jesus was legally entitled to sit on the throne of David. However, Jesus was NOT a blood descendent of King Jeconiah.
g) Jesus was, of course, a blood descendent of His mother Mary.
h) The geneology in Luke 3.23-38 is the geneology of Mary, the mother of Jesus.
i) Luke 3.31 shows that Mary was a blood descendent of King David through David’s son Nathan.
In summary:
a) Since Jesus was legally Joseph’s son in the kingly line, Jesus was and is legally entitled to the throne of David.
b) Since Jesus was a blood descendent of David’s son Nathan, through Jesus’s mother Mary, He is a blood descendent of King David, as God promised He would be.
c) Since Jesus was Joseph’s legal son but not his blood descendent, Jesus was not a blood descendent of King Jeconiah.
d) Accordingly, God kept all of His promises to King David except one — that King Jesus would rule over an eternal kingdom. That promise WILL be fulfilled in the future (Dan 9.7, Rev 19.6).
