15. his testimony of Jesus;
19. Herod imprisons John;
21. Jesus, baptized, receives testimony from heaven.
23. The age and genealogy of Jesus from Joseph upwards.














the son of Joanan
This phrase introduces us to Joanan, a figure about whom little is known outside of genealogical records. The name "Joanan" is derived from the Hebrew "Yohanan," meaning "Yahweh is gracious." This name reflects a common theme in Jewish culture, emphasizing the grace and favor of God. In the context of Luke's genealogy, Joanan serves as a link in the lineage of Jesus, underscoring the divine grace that permeates the history leading to the Messiah.

the son of Rhesa
Rhesa is another figure primarily known through genealogical listings. The name "Rhesa" is thought to mean "head" or "prince," suggesting a position of leadership or prominence. This aligns with the broader biblical narrative where God often works through leaders to accomplish His purposes. Rhesa's inclusion in the genealogy highlights the continuity of God's plan through generations, each playing a role in the unfolding account of redemption.

the son of Zerubbabel
Zerubbabel is a significant figure in Jewish history, known for his leadership in the rebuilding of the Temple in Jerusalem after the Babylonian exile. His name means "seed of Babylon," reflecting his birth during the exile. Zerubbabel's role as a restorer and leader is emblematic of hope and renewal, themes central to the messianic expectation. His presence in the genealogy of Jesus underscores the fulfillment of prophetic promises and the restoration of God's people.

the son of Shealtiel
Shealtiel, the father of Zerubbabel, is a figure whose name means "I have asked of God." This name suggests a sense of divine petition and reliance on God's provision. Shealtiel's life, marked by the challenges of exile, represents the faithfulness of God's people in times of trial. His inclusion in the genealogy serves as a reminder of the importance of prayer and dependence on God throughout the generations.

the son of Neri
Neri is a lesser-known figure, and his name is thought to mean "my lamp" or "light." This imagery of light is significant in biblical literature, often symbolizing guidance, revelation, and the presence of God. Neri's place in the genealogy of Jesus highlights the theme of divine illumination and guidance through history, leading ultimately to the coming of Christ, the Light of the World. His inclusion emphasizes the continuity of God's light shining through the lineage of David, culminating in the birth of the Savior.
