This section contains a list of the family line from Perez through Obed to King David. Five names represent all the generations from Perez, the son of Judah, to Nahshon, who lived at the time of Moses, about four hundred years after Perez. The names of the next five generations represent all the generations from Nahshon to David, who lived about 450 years later. Clearly, many names have been left out of the list.
Here are some other possible headings for this section:
The ancestors of David
Obed in the Genealogy of David (NET)
The list of the ancestors of King David
The names in this listing agree with the lists in 1 Chronicles chapter 2, Matthew chapter 1, and Luke chapter 3. If you have already translated any of these books, refer to the way you transliterated the names there.
Salmon was the father of Boaz,
Salmon was the father of Boaz.
Salmon fathered Boaz. (ESV)
Boaz was the son of Salmon.
Boaz was the father of Obed,
Boaz was the father of Obed.
Boaz fathered Obed. (ESV)
Obed was the son of Boaz.
Salmon was the father of Boaz: Salmon may have been an ancestor rather than the father of Boaz. Other details given in the OT about the lives of Boaz, Obed, Jesse, and David suggest that there are no extra generations between any of them. However, the length of time between Nahshon and Boaz makes it likely that several generations were not listed. Matthew 1:5 records that Salmon married Rahab, who lived in Joshua’s time, when the Israelites were entering Canaan.
Boaz was the father of Obed: Obed’s birth is described in 4:13–17, but nothing more is written in the Bible about his life after that.
Note: The OET-RV is still only a first draft, and so far only a few words have been (mostly automatically) matched to the Hebrew or Greek words that they’re translated from.
Acknowledgements: The Hebrew text, lemmas, and morphology are all thanks to the OSHB and some of the glosses are from Macula Hebrew.
