Genealogies

The word in Hebrew translated genealogy is yachas YodChetShin.[1]

In Ezra 2:62 and Nehemiah 7:64 we see hammiṯyaḥśîm[1](HeyMemTavYodChetShinYodMem הַמִּתְיַחְשִׂ֖ים ) Suggesting as Matthew Henry's commentary states, "Those who have no evidence that they are, by the new birth, spiritual priests unto God, through Jesus Christ, have no right to the comforts and privileges of Christians."

Was this use of the word that could mean a record of a genealogy actually about the record of the spirit by which they had conducted themselves previously?

Cambridge Bible for Schools and Colleges states:

"The importance attached to the genealogical accuracy of the claims preferred to the priesthood is not only a symptom of the legal spirit which animated the Jews of the Return. It goes back to the abolition of the High Places firstly by Hezekiah and afterwards by Josiah, in consequence of which a sharp distinction was drawn between those who had ministered at the High Places and those who were engaged in the Temple worship at Jerusalem. This point is illustrated by the writings of Ezekiel, himself a priest, who writing during the Captivity distinguishes between ‘the priests the Levites that be of the seed of Zadok’ (Ezekiel 43:19; cf. Ezekiel 40:46, Ezekiel 44:14, Ezekiel 48:11) and the ‘Levites that went astray’ (Ezekiel 44:10; Ezekiel 44:13; Ezekiel 44:15, Ezekiel 48:11)."

We should ask how did they go astray?

What common element distinguishes the faithful ministers from those who went the way of iniquity?

Is it about bloodline or the Spirit by which they functioned as priests?

Did they function through faith, hope, and charity or force, fear, and fealty?

Did those priests serve the people through a social safety net from a table of righteousness provided by freewill offerings or the tables that should have been for their welfare but were a snare offered by the rulers with their dainties counted as the wages of unrighteousness?



The Genealogy of Jesus Christ (According to Eusebius)

The Genealogy of Jesus Christ (According to Eusebius) 7:22 min. This video by Nathan83 explains the discrepancy which is supposed to exist in the gospels respecting the genealogy of Jesus.

This video explains the discrepancy which is supposed to exist in the gospels respecting the genealogy of Christ. Uploaded on Jun 19, 2010


I've heard many times that the genealogy in Matthew is of Joseph, and the one in Luke is of Mary. However, according to these historical documents, that is not the case.

The information in this video can be found in Eusebius' Ecclesiastical History, Book 1, Chapter 7: http://www.newadvent.org/fathers/2501.htm

Eusebius is considered by many bible scholars to be the greatest of church historians.

Eusebius references a letter that Julius Africanus wrote to Aristides: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sextus_Julius_Africanus


The explanation that I give in this video concerning the genealogies of Christ:

A. Fits in well with the obvious interpretation of Luke chapter 3 *, B. Is backed up by the law found in Deuteronomy 25:5, C. Is backed up by an example in Genesis 38 [2], and D. Is also backed up by two extra-biblical historians from the 3rd and 4th centuries, Eusebius of Caesarea and Julius Africanus who claim that this history was handed down to them by the Desposyni, a group of people who were descendants of Jesus' blood relatives.

However, the explanation given by most modern-day apologists:

A. Does not fit in well with the obvious interpretation of Luke 3 [3], B. Is not backed up by the Inheritance Law of Numbers 27 like they claim[4], C. Is not backed up by any examples in the Old Testament [5], and D. Is not backed up by any historical account.

To sum it up:

1. Matthan, of Solomon's descent, marries Estha and gives birth to Jacob. [Matthew] 2. Matthan dies. Matthat, of Nathan's descent, marries Estha and gives birth to Heli. [Luke] 3. Jacob and Heli are uterine brothers (same mother but different fathers). 4. Heli marries a wife but dies childless. 5. Keeping Jewish Law in view, Jacob (Heli's brother) marries his brother's wife to raise up seed for him. 6. Joseph is born. 7. Joseph is naturally Jacob's son. [Matthew] 8. But, is, according to Law, Heli's son. [Luke]

Video by Nathan83 disclaimer


Just to let you know, Eusebius actually says that Melchi is the father of Heli, not Matthat. When I made this video I thought that I had read that Melchi is the latin translation of Matthat. So I just replaced Melchi for Matthat. However, I found out later on that this is not true. Melchi is NOT the latin translation for Matthat.

Eusebius omits Matthat and Levi from the genealogy making it seem like Melchi is the father of Heli. So Eusebius' Ecclesiastical History has a mistake in it.

Although it is still possible that the discrepancy could be explained the way Eusebius describes, it is important to understand that he made a minor mistake, like many historians do (Josephus makes mistakes also). So just chew the meat and spit out the bones.


Generations

The dominion of God is the kingdom of God which is from generation to generation.

Lamentations 5:19 "Thou, O LORD, remainest for ever; thy throne from generation to generation."

Daniel 4:3 "How great [are] his signs! and how mighty [are] his wonders! his kingdom [is] an everlasting kingdom, and his dominion [is] from generation to generation."

Daniel 4:34 "And at the end of the days I Nebuchadnezzar lifted up mine eyes unto heaven, and mine understanding returned unto me, and I blessed the most High, and I praised and honoured him that liveth for ever, whose dominion [is] an everlasting dominion, and his kingdom [is] from generation to generation:"

Joel 3:20 But Judah shall dwell for ever, and Jerusalem from generation to generation.

Luke 1:50 And his mercy [is] on them that fear him from generation to generation.

Mankind was made man and woman, male and female, to procreate, being fruitful upon the earth. Dominion was given to this union[6] passed down from generation to generation. Noah was perfect in his generations.[7]

The Way of God is the way of faith which is the way of love and charity in righteousness rather than the ways of unrighteousness through the covetous practices of the world which makes men merchandise and is idolatry.[8]

  2. The example of Genesis 38 gives the story of Onan, whose older brother, Er, had died. Onan was told by his father, Judah, to marry his dead brother's widow, Tamar, and raise up an heir to him. But Onan refused to have a child with her, because he knew the child would not be recognized as his son, but rather as his brother's. This story unveils one of the customs that the Hebrews had, which later became the law of Deuteronomy 25:5.
  3. The obvious interpretation of Luke 3 is that Joseph is the son of Heli. There is nothing written in Luke chapter 3 that would ever cause a 5th or 6th grade child to formulate the idea that Joseph was the son-in-law of Heli. The scriptures are not so elusive to where a child cannot understand its obvious interpretation.
  4. Modern-day apologists claim that the Inheritance Law of Numbers 27 caused Joseph to trace his genealogy through his father-in-law, Heli. However, all Numbers 27 says is that if a man dies and has no son, then his daughters will take the inheritance. It never says that his daughter's husbands will succeed to the name of their dead father-in-law.
  5. There is no example in the Old Testament implying that a man would ever trace his genealogy through his father-in-law, except in the case of Abraham who married his sister (his father was his father-in-law).
  6. Genesis 17:7 And I will establish my covenant between me and thee and thy seed after thee in their generations for an everlasting covenant, to be a God unto thee, and to thy seed after thee.
  7. Genesis 6:9 These [are] the generations of Noah: Noah was a just man [and] perfect in his generations, [and] Noah walked with God.
  8. Covetousness is idolatry
    Colossians 3:5 "Mortify therefore your members which are upon the earth; fornication, uncleanness, inordinate affection, evil concupiscence, and covetousness, which is idolatry: 6 For which things’ sake the wrath of God cometh on the children of disobedience:"
    Ephesians 5:5 "For this ye know, that no whoremonger, nor unclean person, nor covetous man, who is an idolater, hath any inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and of God."
    1 Corinthians 5:10 "Yet not altogether with the fornicators of this world, or with the covetous, or extortioners, or with idolaters; for then must ye needs go out of the world. 11 But now I have written unto you not to keep company, if any man that is called a brother be a fornicator, or covetous, or an idolater, or a railer, or a drunkard, or an extortioner; with such an one no not to eat."
