Jesus is born Abraham was the father of Isaac Abraham, originally named Abram, is a central figure in the Bible, known as the father of the Jewish nation. His story begins in Genesis 12, where God calls him to leave his homeland and promises to make him a great nation. The birth of Isaac is significant as it fulfills God's promise to Abraham and Sarah, despite their old age, highlighting themes of faith and divine intervention. Isaac's birth is a pivotal moment in biblical history, marking the continuation of God's covenant with Abraham's descendants. This lineage is crucial as it sets the stage for the coming of the Messiah, Jesus Christ, who is a descendant of Abraham, fulfilling the promise that through Abraham's seed all nations would be blessed (Genesis 22:18). Isaac the father of Jacob and Jacob the father of Judah and his brothers Persons / Places / Events 1. AbrahamKnown as the father of faith, Abraham is a central figure in the Bible.

Teaching Points The Importance of GenealogyUnderstanding the genealogy of Jesus helps us see the fulfillment of God's promises throughout history. It reminds us of God's faithfulness and sovereignty. Faith and Obedience Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob each demonstrated faith and obedience to God, despite their flaws. This encourages us to trust God and follow His guidance in our own lives. God's Sovereign Choice The selection of Judah, despite his imperfections, shows that God can use anyone for His purposes. This teaches us that our past does not disqualify us from being used by God. The Lineage of Christ The genealogy points to Jesus as the promised Messiah, fulfilling the prophecies of the Old Testament. This strengthens our faith in the reliability of Scripture. Legacy and Influence The lives of these patriarchs remind us of the impact our faith and actions can have on future generations. We are called to live in a way that honors God and influences others positively.(2) The omission of the names of Ishmael and Esau is explained by the fact, that they were not only not in the line of succession, but were outside the covenant with Abraham--"In Isaac shall thy seed be called" (Genesis 21:12); and Esau had forfeited both the birth-right and the blessing. The brethren of Judah are named, on the other hand, because all who were descended from them had an equal interest in the Messiah.Verse 2. - Abraham begat Isaac. From Abraham to David the genealogy in St. Matthew agrees with that in Luke 3. In the other two sections, from Solomon to Zerubbabel, and from Zerubbabel to Christ, there is some difficulty in accounting for the variations, which are considerable. The natural descent of each son from his father is emphasized by the repetition of the word "begat" at every stage (cf., however, ver. 8, note) till we come to Jesus, and then the phrase is varied, "Joseph the husband of Mary, of whom was born Jesus." Judas ( Judah, Revised Version) and his brethren. The addition of these words seems very natural here, because the twelve sons of Jacob were the fathers of the tribes of Israel, and as descended from Abraham were heirs of the promises; and although Judah was the tribe from which the Messiah was to spring, he was to be the glory of the whole of Israel. The same words, "and his brethren," are, however, found in ver. 11, where there is no such reason to account for them. Parallel Commentaries ...
