Mat Matthew, chapter The Gospel According to Matthew, chapter 1
The book of the generation of Jesus Christ, the son of David, the son of Abraham.Luk 3:23
Abraham begat Isaac; and Isaac begat Jacob; and Jacob begat Judah and his brethren; Gen 21:2; Gen 25:26; Gen 29:35and Judah begat Perez and Zerah of Tamar; and Perez begat Hezron; and Hezron begat Ram; Gen 38:30; Gen 46:12; Rut 4:18; 1Ch 2:5and Ram begat Amminadab; and Amminadab begat Nahshon; and Nahshon begat Salmon; and Salmon begat Boaz of Rahab; and Boaz begat Obed of Ruth; and Obed begat Jesse; Rut 4:21; 1Ch 2:11and Jesse begat David the king.
And David begat Solomon of her that had been the wife of Uriah; 1Sa 17:12; 2Sa 12:24and Solomon begat Rehoboam; and Rehoboam begat Abijah; and Abijah begat Asa; 1Ki 11:43; 1Ki 14:31; 1Ki 15:8; 1Ch 3:10and Asa begat Jehoshaphat; and Jehoshaphat begat Joram; and Joram begat Uzziah; and Uzziah begat Jotham; and Jotham begat Ahaz; and Ahaz begat Hezekiah; and Hezekiah begat Manasseh; and Manasseh begat Amon; and Amon begat Josiah; 2Ki 20:21; 1Ch 3:13and Josiah begat Jechoniah and his brethren, at the time of the carrying away to Babylon.2Ki 23:34; 2Ki 24:6; 1Ch 3:16; 2Ch 36:4
And after the carrying away to Babylon, Jechoniah begat Shealtiel; and Shealtiel begat Zerubbabel; 1Ch 3:17; 2Ch 36:8; Ezr 3:2; Ezr 5:2and Zerubbabel begat Abiud; and Abiud begat Eliakim; and Eliakim begat Azor; and Azor begat Sadoc; and Sadoc begat Achim; and Achim begat Eliud; and Eliud begat Eleazar; and Eleazar begat Matthan; and Matthan begat Jacob; and Jacob begat Joseph the husband of Mary, of whom was born Jesus, who is called Christ.
So all the generations from Abraham unto David are fourteen generations; and from David unto the carrying away to Babylon fourteen generations; and from the carrying away to Babylon unto the Christ fourteen generations.
Now the birth of Jesus Christ was on this wise: When his mother Mary had been betrothed to Joseph, before they came together she was found with child of the Holy Spirit. Luk 1:27And Joseph her husband, being a righteous man, and not willing to make her a public example, was minded to put her away privily. But when he thought on these things, behold, an angel of the Lord appeared unto him in a dream, saying, Joseph, thou son of David, fear not to take unto thee Mary thy wife: for that which is conceived in her is of the Holy Spirit. And she shall bring forth a son; and thou shalt call his name JESUS; for it is he that shall save his people from their sins. Luk 1:31; Act 4:12; 1Jn 2:2; Rom 3:24Now all this is come to pass, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the Lord through the prophet, saying,
Behold, the virgin shall be with child, and shall bring forth a son,
And they shall call his name Immanuel;
which is, being interpreted, God with us. Isa 7:14And Joseph arose from his sleep, and did as the angel of the Lord commanded him, and took unto him his wife; and knew her not till she had brought forth a son: and he called his name JESUS.Luk 2:21
