Genealogy of Jesus Continues Back Past David

Continuing a Bible study of the Gospels:

(Luke 3:33) Who was of Aminadab, who was of Aram, who was of Hezron, who was of Pharez, who was of Judah,

The last post established Jesus's descendancy from David, who was the son of Jesse, the son of Obed, the son of Boaz, the son of Salmon, the son of Nahshon, who was the son of Aminadab, and Luke continues the ascendancy through Judah, making Jesus that Lion of Judah referenced in Revelation 5:5.

(34) Who was of Jacob, who was of Isaac, who was of Abraham, who was of Terah, who was of Nahor,

Judah was the son of Jacob, who was, of course, the son of Isaac, who was the son of Abraham, and that established Jesus's descendancy from Abraham.  Luke continued by naming Abraham's father as Terah, and Terah was the son of Nahor.

(35) Who was of Serug, who was of Reu, who was of Peleg, who was of Eber, who was of Shelah, (36) Who was of Cainan, who was of Arphaxad, who was of Shem, who was of Noah, who was of Lamech,

Luke continued Jesus's ascendancy through Noah who was the son of Lamech.  Once again, I have to continue in the next post as Blogger only allows me 20 labels per post.
