And Jacob begat Joseph the husband of Mary, of whom was born Jesus, who is called Christ[1]. [2][3][4][5]
- ↑ Greek: Χριστός (Transliteration: christos), Christ = Annointed, Christ was [and is] the Messiah, the Son of God
- ↑ This verse is part of the genealogy of Jesus, tracing His lineage through Joseph, His legal father. Even though Joseph was not the biological father of Jesus, his role as Jesus' earthly father is recognised in this genealogy, illustrating the concept of legal inheritance and adoption.
- ↑ So Christ had to be adopted into the Jew's blood line, perfect and fulfill the law (see Matthew 5:17), so that we maybe be adopted into God's family.
- ↑ The theme of adoption into the family of Christ is beautifully expanded in several other scriptures: Romans 8:14, 15, 16, 17; Ephesians 1:4, 5; Galatians 4:4, 5, 6, 7; John 1:12,13
- ↑ King James Version (KJV)
