The Genealogy of Jesus | thebereancall.org

TBC Staff

Jesus is the Savior who was promised throughout history. The genealogy of Jesus in Matthew and in Luke show him as the descendant of Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, and eventually David—men to whom these prophecies were made. God promised Abraham that all nations would be blessed through his offspring, which was ultimately fulfilled in Jesus Christ (Galatians:3:7–9, 16).

By reading these genealogies, we also see that Jesus was a direct descendent of King David. Jesus’ genealogy is also a fulfillment of many Old Testament promises. The promised Messiah would be the descendant of David (2 Samuel:7:12–14) and would one day rule on David’s throne (Isaiah:9:6–7).
