Matthew 10:3 "Philip, and Bartholomew; Thomas, and Matthew the publican; James the son of Alphaeus, and Lebbaeus, whose surname was Thaddaeus;"

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

MISC: JESUS GENEALOGY {MATTHEW 1:1 – 1:17}

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

(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; {Matthew 1:1-2}

(2) And Jesse begat David the king; and David the king begat Solomon of her that had been the wife of Urias; {Matthew 1:6}

(3) And Jacob begat Joseph the husband of Mary, of whom was born Jesus, who is called Christ. {Matthew 1:16}

(4) 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. {Matthew 1:17}

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

WHO: Jesus Christ WHOM: Jewish people

Matthew 1:1 "The book of the generation of M Jesus M T Christ T, the M son M of David, the M son M of Abraham."

The book of the generation of Jesus Christ: This is written to the Jews who have Abraham as their father and David as the king from Judas tribe family. The genealogy is through the line of Joseph. After Joseph marriage to Mary, Jesus becomes his earthly father which makes Jesus come from Judas/David family tribe. Mary also was from the Judas/David family tribe. Luke 3:23-38 has Jesus genealogy from Adam, and it is through the line of Mary His earthly birth mother.

KEYWORD: KING {MATTHEW 1:6 – 27:42}

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

() And Jesse begat David the king; and David the king begat Solomon of her that had been the wife of Urias; {Matthew 1:6}

() Now when Jesus was born in Bethlehem of Judaea in the days of Herod the king, behold, there came wise men from the east to Jerusalem, {Matthew 2:1}

() Saying, Where is he that is born King of the Jews? for we have seen his star in the east, and are come to worship him. {Matthew 2:2}

() When Herod the king had heard these things, he was troubled, and all Jerusalem with him. {Matthew 2:3}

() When they had heard the king, they departed; and, lo, the star, which they saw in the east, went before them, till it came and stood over where the young child was. {Matthew 2:9}

() Nor by the earth; for it is his footstool: neither by Jerusalem; for it is the city of the great King. {Matthew 5:35}

() And ye shall be brought before governors and kings for my sake, for a testimony against them and the Gentiles. {Matthew 10:18}

() But what went ye out for to see? A man clothed in soft raiment? behold, they that wear soft clothing are in kings' houses. {Matthew 11:8}

() And the king was sorry: nevertheless for the oath's sake, and them which sat with him at meat, he commanded it to be given her. {Matthew 14:9}

() He saith, Yes. And when he was come into the house, Jesus prevented him, saying, What thinkest thou, Simon? of whom do the kings of the earth take custom or tribute? of their own children, or of strangers? {Matthew 17:25}

() Therefore is the kingdom of heaven likened unto a certain king, which would take account of his servants. {Matthew 18:23}

() Tell ye the daughter of Sion, Behold, thy King cometh unto thee, meek, and sitting upon an ass, and a colt the foal of an ass. {Matthew 21:5}

() The kingdom of heaven is like unto a certain king, which made a marriage for his son, {Matthew 22:2}

() But when the king heard thereof, he was wroth: and he sent forth his armies, and destroyed those murderers, and burned up their city. {Matthew 22:7}
