|- 
| Matthew belonged to a Greek-speaking Jewish-Christian community and was writing to their excepted and customary views at that time. What was important to them was important to Matthew who wrote of the essentials of the Gospel as well.
|-
| Matthew also writes of matters not even mentioned in the other Gospels and for that reason and many others we should always remember that the [[Church legally defined|Doctrines of the Church]] established by [[Jesus]] the [[Christ]] are the [[Doctrines of Jesus]]. Those Doctrines are not doctrines fabricated and gleaned through [[private interpretation]] of things mentioned in the [[Bible]] including Matthew, Paul, nor Apollo.
|-
| Matthew of course speaks to the lineage of [[Jesus]] as a descendant of [[Abraham]] who was blessed by [[Melchizedek]] through the kingly line of David.

| Adam had been given a dominion over the souls of the field
|-
|  The word "[[Christ]]" is a Greek word, Χριστός Christos, signifying "anointed." The Hebrew word, משׁיח mâshı̂yach, signifying the same is "[[Messiah]]." Hence, Jesus is called either the Messiah, or the Christ, meaning the same thing. The Jews speak of the Messiah; Christians speak of him as the Christ. In ancient times, when kings and priests were set apart to their office, they were [[anoint]]ed with oil, [[Leviticus 4]]:3; [[Leviticus 6]]:20; [[Exodus 28]]:41; [[Exodus 29]]:7; [[1 Samuel 9]]:16; [[1 Samuel 15]]:1; [[2 Samuel 23]]:1. To anoint, therefore, means often the same as to consecrate, or to set apart to an office.

== The Genealogy of Jesus Christ ==

[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 [[king Solomon|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.

== The Birth of Jesus Christ ==

[18] Now the birth of [[Jesus]] [[Christ]] was on this wise:<Ref name="houto">{{3779}}</Ref> When as his mother Mary was espoused<Ref name="mnesteuo">{{3423}}</Ref> to Joseph, before they came together<Ref name="sunerchomai">{{4905}}</Ref>, she was found with child of the [[Holy Ghost]].

[19] Then Joseph her husband, being a just man, and not willing to make her a publick example, was minded to put her away privily.

[20] But while he thought on these things, behold, the angel of the Lord appeared unto him in a dream, saying, Joseph, thou son of David, [[fear not]] to take unto thee Mary thy wife: for that which is conceived in her is of the [[Holy Ghost]].

[21] And she shall bring forth a son, and thou shalt call his name JESUS:<Ref name="Jesus">{{2424}}</Ref> for he shall save his people from their sins.

[22] Now all this was done, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken of the Lord by the prophet, saying,

[23] Behold, a virgin<Ref name="parthenos">{{3933}}</Ref> shall be with child<Ref> [[Isaiah 7]]:14 Therefore the Lord himself shall give you a sign; Behold, a virgin shall conceive, and bear a son, and shall call his name Immanuel.15 Butter and honey shall he eat, that he may know to refuse the evil, and choose the good.</Ref>, and shall bring forth a son, and they shall call his name Emmanuel<Ref name="Emmanouel">{{1694}}</Ref>, which being interpreted is, God with us.

[24] Then Joseph being raised from sleep did as the angel of the Lord had bidden him, and took unto him his wife:

[25] And knew her not till she had brought forth her [[firstborn]]<Ref>[[Exodus 12]]:29  And it came to pass, that at midnight the LORD smote all the firstborn in the land of [[Egypt]], from the firstborn of [[Pharaoh]]... <Br>[[Numbers 3]]:2  And these [are] the names of the sons of Aaron; Nadab the firstborn, and Abihu, Eleazar, and Ithamar.<br>[[Numbers 3]]:12  And I, behold, I have taken the Levites from among the children of Israel instead of all the firstborn that openeth the matrix among the children of Israel: therefore the Levites shall be mine;</Ref> son: and he called his name [[Jesus|JESUS]].<Ref name="Jesus">{{2424}}</Ref>
