MATTHEW, THE BOOK OF THE GENERATOINS OF JESUS

    MATTHEW, BOOK OF THE GENERATIONS OF JESUS                Jesus's genealogy is through his earthly father, Joseph the Carpenter. Joseph in my opinion is not his step-father. Jesus had two fathers, His Heavenly Father God and his earthly father Joseph . This genealogy begins with father Abraham whom God promised many sons.    The Generations from Abraham to David are 14.    1 Abraham begat  Isaac  his first born, born in his old age.        2 Isaac begat  Jacob           3 Jacob begat  Judas  and his brothers              4 Judas begat  Phares & Zara                5 Phares begat  Esrom                    6 Esrom begat Aram                      7 Aram begat Aminadab                         8 Aminadab  begat Naason                            9 Naason begat Salmon                                10 Salmon begat Booz (Boaz)                                  11 Booz begat Obed (of Ruth)                                        12 Obed begat Jesse

THE KINGDOM OF ISRAEL, AS ONE!

     God's people on earth was made up of the twelve tribes of Jacob and called  Israel.  When the tribes asked God for a King is when the nation officially became a Kingdom.  But God warned them that it would come with its challenges,                                                                      THE GREAT DIVIDE           In about the 10th century  BCE something took place that dramatically affected the people of Israel and still effects' them today.  It was the Great Divide.  This divide split the people into two kingdoms the northern part of the kingdom was called Israel.  The southern part of the kingdom was called Judah.            I Kings 12:16-19 tells us "And when all Israel saw that the King did not listen to them, the people answered the King, "What portion do we have in David?  We have no inheritance in the son of Jesse."  "To your tents, O, Israel! Look now to your own house, David."  Israel has been rebelling against the house of Dav
