The Christ Are Fourteen Generations MAJESTY AND MERCY Christmas is rooted in history, anchored in God’s plan, and focused on one amazing Person – Jesus Christ. Matthew 1:1-17 Matthew 1:1 1 The book of the genealogy of Jesus Christ, the Son of David, the Son of Abraham . Matthew 1:16-17 16 And Jacob begot 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, from David until the captivity in Babylon are fourteen generations, and from the captivity in Babylon until the Christ are fourteen generations. 2 Samuel 7:12-14 12 When your days are fulfilled and you rest with your fathers, I will set up your seed after you, who will come from your body, and I will establish his kingdom. 13 He shall build a house for My name, and I will establish the throne of his kingdom forever. 14 I will be his Father, and he shall be My son . Psalm 89:3-4 3 I have made a covenant with My chosen, I have sworn to My servant David: 4 Your seed I will establish forever, and build up your throne to all generations. Genesis 12:2-3 2 I will make you a great nation; I will bless you and make your name great; and you shall be a blessing. 3 I will bless those who bless you, and I will curse him who curses you; and in you all the families of the earth shall be blessed. Matthew 1:2-3 2 Abraham begot Isaac, Isaac begot Jacob, and Jacob begot Judah and his brothers. 3 Judah begot Perez and Zerah by Tamar . Matthew 1:3-6 3 Judah begot Perez and Zerah by Tamar, Perez begot Hezron, and Hezron begot Ram. 4 Ram begot Amminidab, Amminadab begot Nahshon, and Nahshon begot Salmon. 5 Salmon begot Boaz by Rahab, Boaz begot Obed by Ruth, Obed begot Jesse, 6 and Jesse begot David the King. David the king begot Solomon by her who had been the wife of Uriah. Matthew 1:2 2 Abraham begot Isaac, Isaac begot Jacob, and Jacob begot Judah and his brothers. [Father] begot [son], [then he] begot [son], [then he] begot [son], etc. Matthew 1:3 3 Judah begot Perez and Zerah by Tamar, Perez begot Hezron, and Hezron begot Ram. [Father] begot [son] through [this woman]. Matthew 1:5-6 5 Salmon begot Boaz by Rahab, Boaz begot Obed by Ruth, Obed begot Jesse, 6 and Jesse begot David the King. David the king begot Solomon by her who had been the wife of Uriah. Matthew 1:16 16 And Jacob begot Joseph the husband of Mary, of whom was born Jesus who is called Christ. Matthew 1:16 16 Jacob fathered Joseph, the husband of Mary. From her was fathered Jesus, the One being called Christ. Joseph is Mary’s husband but he’s not Jesus’ father, though he gives Jesus legal right to the throne of David. Jesus - this One being called Christ - was fathered through Mary in a different way. • Focus on the facts, not the fiction, surrounding Christmas. • Focus on the facts, not the fiction, surrounding Christmas. • Be amazed that Jesus came from majesty. • Focus on the facts, not the fiction, surrounding Christmas. • Be amazed that Jesus came from majesty. • Be encouraged that Jesus comes with mercy. .

  • Rahab the Prostitute: a History of Interpretation from Antiquity to the Medieval Period
    Rahab the Prostitute: A History of Interpretation from Antiquity to the Medieval Period Irving M. Binik Department of Jewish Studies McGill University, Montreal April, 2018 A thesis submitted to McGill University in partial fulfillment of the requirements of the degree of Master of Arts © Irving Binik 2018 Abstract Rahab the Canaanite prostitute saves the two spies who were sent by Joshua to reconnoiter Jericho in preparation for the impending Israelite invasion. In recompense for her actions, Rahab and her family are saved from the destruction of Jericho and are allowed to live among the Israelites. This thesis investigates the history of interpretation of the Rahab story from antiquity to medieval times focusing on textual, narrative and moral issues. It is argued that an important theme in the history of interpretation of the Rahab story is its message of inclusiveness. Le résumé Rahab, la prostituée Cananéenne, sauve la vie des deux espions qui avaient été envoyés par Joshua en reconnaissance en vue de l’invasion Israélite imminente de la ville de Jéricho. En guise de récompense pour son aide, Rahab et sa famille sont épargnées et autorisées à vivre parmi les Israélites après la destruction de Jericho. Ce mémoire retrace l’historique de l’interprétation de l’histoire de Rahab de l’Antiquité au Moyen-Age, et ce en se penchant sur les problématiques textuelles, narratives et morales qui sont en jeu. L'importance de la thématique de l’inclusion dans l’interprétation de l’histoire de Rahab est tout particulièrement mise de l'avant. ii Table of Contents Acknowledgments…………………………………………………………………………1 Chapter 1: Introduction…………………………………………………............................2 Chapter 2: Inner-biblical Interpretation Plot……………………………………………………………………...................

  • Online Lesson Sheet on Jacob Power of a Blessing
    The Big Story Of The Bible #37 JACOB: THE POWER OF BLESSING When the time came to give birth, Rebekah discovered that she did indeed have twins! The first one was very red at birth and covered with thick hair like a fur coat. So they named him Esau. Then the other twin was born with his hand grasping Esau’s heel. So they named him Jacob. Genesis 25:24-26 (NLT) No wonder his name is Jacob, for now he has cheated me twice. First he took my rights as the firstborn, and now he has stolen my blessing. Genesis 27:36 (NLT) Observations On Blessing: 1. The ____________________ Of Blessing. * But Rebekah overheard what Isaac had said to his son Esau. So when Esau left to hunt for the wild game, she said to her son Jacob… Genesis 27:5-6 (NLT) * “I am an old man now,” Isaac said, “and I don’t know when I may die… Prepare my favorite dish, and bring it here for me to eat. Then I will pronounce the blessing that belongs to you, my firstborn son, before I die.” Genesis 27:2-4 (NLT) * The sons in your womb will become two nations. From the very beginning, the two nations will be rivals. One nation will be stronger than the other; and your older son will serve your younger son. Genesis 25:23 (NLT) * This is a record of the ancestors of Jesus the Messiah, a descendant of David and of Abraham: Abraham was the father of Isaac. Isaac was the father of Jacob.

  • The Internal Consistency and Historical Reliability of the Biblical Genealogies
    Vetus Testamentum XL, 2 (1990) THE INTERNAL CONSISTENCY AND HISTORICAL RELIABILITY OF THE BIBLICAL GENEALOGIES by GARY A. RENDSBURG Ithaca, New York The general trend among scholars in recent years has been to treat the genealogies recorded in the Bible with an increased skep- ticism. Whereas past generations of scholars may have been ready to affirm the trustworthiness of at least some of the Israelite lineages, current research in this area has led to the opposite con- clusion. Provided with parallels both from ancient Near Eastern documents and from the sociological and anthropological study of tribal societies of the present, most scholars today contend that the biblical genealogies do not constitute a reliable source for the reconstruction of history.' The current approach is that the genealogies may retain some value for the reconstruction of political ties on a national or tribal level,2 but that in no way should they be taken at face value. This is especially true for those genealogies which purport to be from early Israelite times, such as the lineages of Moses or David. In the present article I will offer some evidence which, depending on how it is judged, may stem the tide described above. The approach to be taken will differ from recent work on the subject, in that it will adduce no external evidence from either ancient or modern times. Instead, I will concentrate on the genealogies them- selves, in particular those lineages of characters who appear in Exodus through Joshua. I anticipate one of the results of my analysis with the following statement: the genealogies themselves 1 See especially R.
