Matthew 1:1 - 1:17
Gospel of MatthewSteve Gregg
In this teaching, Steve Gregg dives into the importance of Jesus' genealogy in Matthew 1:1-17. He highlights how the lineage of Jesus was traced back to Abraham and David, the two pivotal figures in Jewish history, and how this fulfilled prophecy in the Old Testament. Gregg also notes the inclusion of certain individuals in the genealogy, such as women and non-Jews, which was unusual for that time and speaks to how Jesus came to minister to all people. Additionally, Gregg touches on the significance of the numerology found in the Hebrew and Greek letters used in the genealogy.
