TTN Tyndale Theme Notes:

Genealogy of Jesus

Both Matthew and Luke provide genealogies of Jesus (Matt 1:1-17; Luke 3:23-38). The two genealogies differ for the generations following King David. Matthew follows the line of David’s son Solomon, while Luke follows the line of David’s son Nathan. One possible explanation is that Matthew records Joseph’s genealogy while Luke records Mary’s (in which case Joseph would have been Heli’s son-in-law).

Genealogies were kept quite accurately in Judaism, as Josephus confirms (Josephus, Life 1). Genealogies were important in the Old Testament and in Judaism generally because land rights were apportioned to families in Israel and because certain offices, such as priest and king, were inherited from father to son. Genealogies sometimes ran a record from the past to the present to illustrate religious themes, family descent, or political ties, as well as simple chronology (1 Chr 1–9). Most such lists were representative rather than a complete list of every individual.

The purpose of Matthew’s genealogy, unlike Luke’s, is to show Jesus’ heritage as running from Abraham through David. Jesus’ genealogy confirms him as a legitimate heir to the throne of David. So Jesus’ genealogy in Matthew goes back to Abraham, the father of the Jewish race. By contrast, the genealogy in Luke goes all the way back to Adam. This is consistent with Luke’s emphasis on Jesus as the Savior for all people everywhere.

In Matthew’s genealogy, the unusual mention of women with stained reputations (Tamar, Rahab, Ruth, and Bathsheba), some of them Gentiles, is noteworthy and emphasizes God’s grace to redeem even those deemed unworthy by others.

Jesus’ genealogies do not prove that Jesus is the Messiah, but they do make him a possible candidate. His identity as the Messiah becomes evident in other ways (Matt 11:2-6). God had guided the course of history to its climax. Jesus is the anticipated Messiah of the Old Testament, the Savior of his people, and the King descended from David assuming his throne (see 2 Sam 7:16). He is heir to Abraham and ultimately fulfills God’s promises to Abraham (Gen 12:1-3).

UTN uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

μετὰ & τὴν μετοικεσίαν Βαβυλῶνος

after & the deportation ˱to˲_Babylon

Here Matthew refers to the same event that he referred to in 1:11. Express the idea in the same way you did there. Alternate translation: “after the Babylonians captured Jerusalem and took many people away”

Note 2 topic: translate-names

Ἰεχονίας ἐγέννησεν τὸν Σαλαθιήλ, Σαλαθιὴλ δὲ ἐγέννησεν τὸν Ζοροβαβέλ

Jechonias bore ¬the Salathiel Salathiel and bore ¬the Zorobabel

This is a continuation of the list of Jesus’ ancestors that began in 1:2. Use the same format as you used in the previous verses.

Note 3 topic: translate-names

τὸν Σαλαθιήλ, Σαλαθιὴλ

¬the Salathiel Salathiel

Many translations spell Salathiel as “Shealtiel.” Consider how translations with which your readers might be familiar spell this name. Alternate translation: “Shealtiel … Shealtiel”

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

Σαλαθιὴλ & ἐγέννησεν τὸν Ζοροβαβέλ

Salathiel & bore ¬the Zorobabel

In 1 Chronicles 3:19, a brother of Salathiel named Pedaiah is listed as the father of Zerubbabel. However, early Greek translations of 1 Chronicles 3:19 list Salathiel as the father of Zerubabbel. Matthew most likely used a source like these early Greek translations, so he probably intended his readers to think of Salathiel as the father of Zerubbabel and not as his uncle. If it would be helpful in your language, you could include some of this information in a footnote.
