Matthew
Matthew 1:15KJV·traditional attribution
And Eliud begat Eleazar; and Eleazar begat Matthan; and Matthan begat Jacob;
Matthew Henry Presbyterian
This genealogy proves a title, like evidence in court: it establishes that Jesus is the son of David and son of Abraham, from the nation and family out of which the Messiah was to arise. Abraham and David were the great trustees of the promise. Whoever would have interest in Christ as the son of Abraham must be a faithful subject to Him as the son of David, by whom all families of the earth are to be ruled.
