It is important to know that Matthew wrote to a Jewish audience to show that Yeshua is the long-awaited Messiah of the Jews, and that He is the King of the Jews. Therefore, the first person listed in Matthew is David, emphasizing Yeshua’s kingly and Jewish lineage. Matthew begins with David, and the second person in Matthew’s genealogy is Abraham, firmly establishing Yeshua’s Jewish roots. Matthew calls attention to both. Today, we take a look at the genealogy of David and see the truly incredible hand of the Lord at work. No mere man could ever have arranged this amazing genealogy.
