Christians, please help me understand Jesus's genealogy!?

answers1: That passage is all the proof that the Christian needs to
disregard the doctrine of premillennialism, and an earthly reign on
earth, by Jesus. There will never again be a king sitting on the
throne of David. Jesus' kingdom is the Kingdom of God. Remember He
told Pilate that His "kingdom was not of this world" <br>
<br>
That is also all the proof you need to show that Psalms 2 was
Messianic and not written about King David, as the Muslims would have
us believe..
answers2: Why go nuts: Jesus is from God, who borrowed Mary's womb and
Joseph her husband became His earthly father. But all this genealogy
stuff really has nothing to do with Jesus because His DNA comes from
God the Father and He is in heaven.
answers3: First you know that Matthews genealogy is about Joseph the
so called earthly father of Jesus and Luke's version is Mary's
ancestors his earthly mother. This Joseph is about his earthly
father, the carpenter Joseph and not in the Old Testament. <br>
<br>
You are right studying genealogy can drive you batty but it can be
done. Case in point is the many genealogy sites that are available
even now in the internet. Which makes it even more dramatic without
computers thousands of years ago. In looking at some of those sites I
have marveled at how royal families in Europe can trace their ancestry
way way back beyond even the time of Jesus Christ. <br>
<br>
Both versions are important in linking for the salvation message of
how the perfect sacrifice for sin through Jesus Christ redeemed all of
the fall of man kind through Adam as described in the book of Genesis.
<br>
<br>
It is true that Jesus is included in this curse. But it is fulfilled
in that his seed did not prosper. It is also true that Jesus Christ
kingdom is not physical but spiritual. <br>
<br>
If I did not think you were making fun of what Christians believe I
would want you to go look at sites that talk about this respectfully
and not with disparity. <br>
<br>
Just my opinion. <br>
<br>
Later.
answers4: Matthew and Luke made up their genealogies from thin air. <br>
In fact both nativity narratives are pretty much invented.
