Matthew 1

| V1. Βίβλος γενέσεως The Book[1] of generations[2] is like unto the Book of Genesis[3]. In Genesis 2:4 we see "These [are] the generations of the heavens and of the earth" where generations should be TavVavLamedDalethHey but we see in the text is in the form of TavVavLamedDaletVavTav, מֵפֶר תּוֹלְדוֹת, [4] and again in Genesis 5:1 we see TavVavLamedDaletTav תּוֹלְדֹ֖ת tō-wl-tōt, LXX.[5] The phrase is common in Jewish writings. "This is the book of the generations of Adam," the family or descendants of Adam which is mankind. By "faith" they are their generations of Heaven? |
| V2-16, which contains the origin of Christ from the Messianic line that runs on from the time of Abraham. The dominion of God is the kingdom of God which is from generation to generation. |
| 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 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 anointed 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 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:[11] When as his mother Mary was espoused[12] to Joseph, before they came together[13], 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:[7] 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[9] shall be with child[14], and shall bring forth a son, and they shall call his name Emmanuel[10], 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[15] son: and he called his name JESUS.[7]
